Pre-AP Science Lesson Plans & Homework

This page is updated weekly on Mondays (or Tuesday if Monday is a school holiday) by 3:10 p.m. These plans are subject to change depending on progress of plans each day in class. Schedule changes, interruptions, time shortages, and overly ambitious plans by Mr. Dunn may all contribute to these plans altering mid-week. When time permits, Mr. Dunn will try to update this page as changes occur, but that is not always possible. The planner is always your best guide and most accurate homework guide.
