Expectations in class…… • I expect every student to be respectful to the adults and students, but also to themselves. • I expect responsibility from every student. • I expect every student to give 200% so even when they feel tired and lazy, I’ll still be getting 100%. • I expect every student to use their Interactive Notebooks as a Science tool. The use of the notebook can and will be grades throughout the year.

7. I want every student to learn the required Science Curriculum But most of all I want them to have FUN while they do. REMEMBER: Science is all about learning by discovery!
