Welcome to 8th Grade Science
Welcome to 8th grade science! Thanks for what I know is going to be a great year.
(New this year! Text "on Science8EMS" to 40404 get HW notifications)
Following are some of the basics of this class.
Physics 2 Test: May 23rd, 2012 (Notebook also due May 23rd, 2012)
The dates for all tests and notebooks for 2011-2012 can be found here:
Important Dates
The policies for this class can be found here:
Behavior & Expectations
This year students will be studying these major units:
Scientific Method
Astronomy
Chemistry
Physics
Grades are based on four major categories of work, each contributing equally: homework, classwork, tests and science notebooks.
Homework is given every Tuesday and Thursday and graded online every Wednesday and Friday.
Major tests occur at the end of each unit.
Science notebooks are explained on the
notebook cover sheet and are due on the same day that units are tested.
In addition, a science fair project will be assigned in September. The
Science Project Timeline list all the detailed deadlines.
