Upcoming Assignments
Due:
HMWK 9/8 - Unit Test and EBS
Use the study guide to study for the upcoming unit test on the Nature of Science. Please review notes in your notebook, FISH Journal questions, and notes on Google Classroom. Do not just read through your notes; instead, test yourself to make sure you know the information. (Free printable flashcard maker: https://www.kitzkikz.com/flashcards/). You MUST know the vocabulary.
Use the information on your study guide and in your notebook to create your EBS ( EXTERNAL BRAIN SHEET - think Cheat Sheet). The EBS is BOTH SIDES of one 3 X 5 card, must be hand-written, and can be used on the test. Your EBS is due on the day of the test. In order to receive full credit on the EBS, you must have filled one full side of the card with notes. (If you write VERY large and skip lots of space on your EBS, it will not count as a full page of card.)
Students will take an online unit test and a lab practicum during the same class period.
There are no retakes or corrections on tests in 7th-grade science because you get to use an EBS on the test. You need to prepare in advance
