Question 4

Answer 4
Each assignment will be given a point value. Assignments include class work, field notes, homework and tests. The grade for a given assignment is calculated by dividing the points received by the total possible points. Your semester grade will be determined by dividing the total number of points you earned by the total possible points. Science Binders are worth 25 points EACH SEMESTER. You will keep ALL classwork and fieldwork plus a table of contents and your science resource packet in your 3-ring science binder.
Question 5

Answer 5
You have two ways to raise your grade: 1) Any non-test assignment may be corrected and returned to me. I will give you the average of the corrected and original grades. 2) For tests, you may raise your grade up to 20% by completing an extra credit project that shows me that you understand the material covered on the test. The project does not need to cover ALL of the material on the test -- only the parts you struggled with. You need to let me know you would like to do this so I can approve your project before starting.
Question 6

Answer 6
There is NO TEXTBOOK for this course (Hooray!). You will be supplied with a packet of resource materials that you will keep in your 3-ring binders. You will also create primary resources during classroom and field activities. These materials will provide you with the information needed to study for tests. Your science binder becomes your "textbook," so it is important that you maintain a COMPLETE and ORGANIZED science binder throughout the year! Bring your binder EVERY TIME we meet!
