Notebook Set-Up

We used the ENTIRE class period to set up notebooks today. This was especially important because science notebooks are worth 50% of the science grade. It houses EVERYTHING...classwork, homework, bell work, lab reports, article write-ups...EVERYTHING! Students will be expected to bring their science notebooks to class EVERY DAY! You never know when there will be a surprise notebook check. In the back of the notebook, you will find the "Adult Input Page". An entry on this page can be completed by a parent/guardian for 5 points extra credit each week (up to 40 - 45 points total)!!!

HW:
1) Finish decorating your notebook coversheet. Remember, you must use at least 4 colors (not including black and white) and provide at least 2 illustrations. Your illustrations must pertain to a topic that we are covering in class this nine weeks (Experimental Design, Water Resources (Cycle), and Oceans)
2) Bring back SIGNED lab safety contracts.
