Team Pride Assignments: Math and Science 11.18.14

Homework Expectations

The primary purpose of homework is practice, an extension of the day’s work, time to work on long-term projects or an investigation of something for class discussion, not introduction of a new skill. Students should be able to complete it independently. If unable to complete an assignment independently, please notify your teacher. 7th—8th grade teachers work together as a team to plan for approximately one hour nightly, unless a student opts to take on extra courses or enrichment, such as language, algebra, music, band, etc.

SCIENCE: Final draft of "Ecology" graphic organizer is due at the beginning of class Tomorrow, 11.18.14. Students were given a detailed scoring checklist to double check that they have all components (they will be sharing their work with their peers) Tomorrow will be the last of the class time they will be given to work on this project.
