Today the students received a note for their parents and the rubric to tell the student precisely how to write their first Science report. The instructions are quite precise. The student needs to have their rough draft in to me on or before by Oct. 21. A rough draft should be done well so there are just a few corrections to make. The student should follow the rubric carefully and then they will get all the points. The final draft is due on or before Nov 11th. Then they will do an oral report on their animal. A poster is required. The students will have four days of class time to work on their report. It must be hand-written. Students who have mastered the skill of handwriting will, after the first report, be allowed to type. However, students who still need handwriting practice will be required to write their papers until they have learned that skill.
Each student drew an animal out of a jar and that is the animal they will write their report on. Parents are allowed to correct spelling and encourage good handwriting. However, be careful to allow this report to be the student's work.
