Have your Science Notebooks in class and be prepared each day.  You risk losing participation points by being unprepared for class (notebook, pencil/pen, paper).

Are You Sick or Absent?   Here is what you can do.   
Grades   (From:  Classroom Policies )
Physical Science students grades are based on two criteria.
50% Tests and Quizzes
50% Lab and Projects       
What's Coming Up and What's Due

Quizzes, Assignments, and Homework Due Dates
(Some class work becomes homework when we run out of time and is not listed here.  For example: Labs are to be written up at home if not accomplished during class.)

Late work will be significantly penalized unless a new due date is arranged with me ahead of time.

Reading the Textbook
I expect you to read each chapter we work on.  If you don't have any assigned homework, you can always be reading the current chapter. 
  • Read the chapter and take notes on it.  Summarize your notes.
  • Ask me to clarify anything you don't understand in class. 
  • Reading the chapter before I talk about it in class is the surest way to gaining a good understanding of the material.

I also have Guided Reading MP3s for the whole textbook.  If you want to borrow one, let me know. Just load it in a MP3 player and open your book.  It follows the text exactly.  Listening, reading, and writing will push your understanding of this course well into the passing range

Science Text Books
Your textbook should be at home.  I will ask you to bring them to school when we need them.  We will have a class set.  You can borrow a book for study halls any time you want. If you want to bring your book to and from school, put a cover on it for protection. Any books at school found without a cover will be confiscated until you can provide a cover.
