Mrs. Davenport's 8th Grade Science

10/27: PreAP ONLY - The Next Science Project due date is 2 weeks from TODAY!!  It's Thursday 11/10.  This is a TEST GRADE!!  Check your packet for what is due, the grading rubric is included.  No late work is accepted, as this is a long term project and the due date has been known by students since the first week of school.  Science Fair in particular, your abstract is due.  An abstract is like a summary of your project.  It's supposed to get someone interested in your project without telling them the conclusion (like the description on a book jacket).  Check Mrs. Marshall's website for instructions on how to write an abstract.  Please ask questions this week before it gets too late.

Science Project due date was TODAY 10/17!!!  Remember this is part of a long-term project.  No late work is accepted! However, due to the current teacher circumstances, you may turn in your Notebook TOMORROW 10/18 for no late points.  After Tuesday, it will be a 0 that cannot be made up. You should be able to find this information in your project packet (online and handed to you the first week of school), but here it is AGAIN ...

All projects will be turning in their Lab Notebook for inspection with some variations as to what is included.  All notebooks must be set up, according to the Lab Notebook section of your project packet, and must include all approved items to this point.  PLEASE CHECK YOUR PACKET FOR THE GRADING RUBRIC!!!

Model Projects: Idea, Materials, Build Procedures, Research, Bibliography, Scale Drawing MUST be included (drawing can be attached, not redrawn) AND you MUST have RECORDS written in your RECORDS sections!!  This shows me you've started the project!!  You have to show me both written and photo evidence of your progress!  You will FAIL without this part!!
