Science in the News
A weekly mixture of information 6/13/16
Progress reports go out on Wednesday
As of 6/13/16, your grades have been updated. Progress reports post on Wednesday, so please remember that sometimes the progress report itself does not match your grade in the portal due to the daily fluctuation of grades. The grade you will see is only a snapshot of what is completed daily.
Why a "1"
If you see a "1" for a grade, this means it needs your attention. You might need to clarify something, correct something... or maybe you posted a assignment I am unable to open.... Remember it is your responsibility to check your grades at all times.
Assignment Due Dates
Tick-Tock goes the clock.......We only have 5 more weeks left in the term. .....It is imperative we get our assignments in on time to be successful in class. Remember........ Assignments are due every day by midnight. If you post your work at 12:01 am it will be considered late...... So view your calendars to be sure you submit your work on time.
Don't get left behind.......
Quick!......Don't get left behind! Jump on the Science train and Join your groups discussion today,......Mrs. Norris loves to read all about your adventures .....Think of a discussion board as if you were having an actual discussion face to face. Would you constantly say to the person " I agree" throughout the whole conversation without an explanation as to why you agree or disagree?
Final exams are just around the corner
Take this time out to study daily a section at a time in your module that you feel is the weakest area for you....view videos, study vocabulary using studystack, or maybe using quizlet with flash cards.
**A generic study guide will be posted soon, so you can get a head start on studying.
There are 45 questions, and it is timed, so pace yourself at 2 minutes per question... don't leave any questions blank, flag the ones you want to go back and check.
Final exams start July 14. It is best to get a head start on your studying now, for success on the exam.
