| Homework will be placed in the composition notebook with a table of contents
on the my own science activities. A letter will be given out by the end of
this week for parents and students for an explanation of the assignments for
each quarter. Students are allowed to choose and complete the assignments
for each quarter and turn in with parent initials with dates. Students may
leave their composition at home until the due date. I usually go over the
MOS for the first two weeks to identify what to do for homework. It is
important for students to bring their materials on time for the first two
weeks of school.
STUDENTS CAN CHOOSE NEW AND EXCITING MOS ASSIGNMENTS. I EVEN SUGGESTED COMING
UP WITH A NEW AND CREATIVE IDEA THAT I DID NOT MENTION ON THE SHEET..FOR
EXAMPLE, CREATE A POWERPOINT PROJECT OR TOUR A MUSEUM OR EXHIBIT AND SUMMARIZE
THE TOUR YOU HAD. KNOWLEDGE IS POWER, SO PLEASE USE IT!
