Quick overviewUse SHIFT+ENTER to open the menu (new window).
We will be studying the book in units, so after we finish with climate and weather, we will move on to Space.  Sometime in the second semester, we will be doing the LEGO's project.  We will also be doing some Newton's Law Activities, like Balloon Cars toward the end of the year.  After the unit on earth science, we will skip to life science, then come back to physics towards the end.

GRADING SCALE CHANGE!!Use SHIFT+ENTER to open the menu (new window).
Starting today, semester 2, my grading scale is changing.  Rather than having 4 categories (tests/quizzes/homework/classwork), everything will fall under the classwork category.  The points awarded each item will vary depending on the assignment.  The grades will be weighted this way for the rest of the year.
