Note for parent/guardian

Daily assignments are class work and only become homework if not finished during class. Planned assignments may change as necessary. Check daily for an accurate listing of that specific day.

All students should keep all daily grade assignments in order in their Science Notebook.

Extra credit toward test: Students can earn 10 points extra credit. They may choose one of the following:1. Draw a picture from the current chapter or a picture of their own about the current chapter. I decide how many points picture is worth up to possibility of 10 points.2. Write all  vocabulary words and definitions for the current chapter five times and receive 10 points. Extra credit must be turned in prior to that day's test.

Assignments are due next day except note-taking worksheet that is turned in after completion of whole chapter.

Science Fair will be March 4th and 5th 2008.

Everyone must do a project. It must be approved by me before you start, but be looking for possible ideas that are of interest to you!
