Understanding these new vocabulary words is vital to success in my science classroom.
The following Vocabulary Lists are worth 100 points. This assignment is mandatory. Students can only earn all points by turning the assignment in on time and complete. Additional points are lost for how late the assignment is. However, after the due date, all students are required to attend Lunchtime makeup sessions in my room until the vocabulary assignment is completed. If they fail to report for their makeup session they may receive a pass entry for poor behavior.
