Welcome to the 2013-14 school year!
We are up and running and LOVING EVERY MINUTE OF IT! :-)
The first Science Notebook check was conducted by each student 9/6/13.
All students are encouraged to review the 5-point scoring rubric with a parent or guardian:
*5 Requirements of assignment exceed expectations, in-depth understanding is clear.
*4 Requirements of assignment are met, understanding is evident.
*3 Most requirements are met, but limited understanding is evident.
*2 Some requirements met but assignment incomplete, minimal understanding evident.
*1 Very little evidence of requirements or understanding.
(A more detailed rubric is in each student's science notebook)
Students have 1 week to improve any scores on notebook entries that are a level 3 or lower.
The 1 week deadline is Friday, September 13, for this notebook check.

August Greetings!! I know it's early, but I just got back from an awesome AVID training and am thinking about the upcoming school year...
I hope all of you new 8th graders are excited and ready to learn about "Properties of Matter," and are ready to start the year with lots of labs and activities!
Yep, Cornell Notes are a big part of how we process information in 8th grade science, and I know you are all experts at using them :-).
See you August 28th!!!!!
