Thursday

The test is over, graded and handed back. The students received a paper attached to their test for parents to read, sign, date and return no later than Monday. (if it comes in Monday the student gets 10 points.) The paper explains how to fix their test and receive half credit for every question they fix. The questions must be in a complete sentence. Punctuation and spelling must be accurate. I must be able to read it, and most importantly, the answers must be correct. I will re-grade the papers and hopefully the grade will improve.

If this paper is not to me at the beginning of class on Monday, then I will not take it. This is an opportunity for the student to learn some things he/she didn't learn the first time around. The purpose is for learning. The extra points are for encouragement.

Today we learned about protists and how they move. Take a look at the links on the right for a few youtube videos on Protists.
