Don't let the mark I give you on a test, a lab, a project or an exam define you, or your journey as a Physics student. The marks I give you are merely a communication tool I use to give you a snapshot of what I THINK is your progress in that moment in time. Look at it, come talk to me about it if you need, learn from it but move on. Keep going on your education journey until you get to a point where you don't need or you are not being "graded" anymore and at that point if you are still interested in learning more about Physics then you will begin to know what kind of a Physics student you are.
Don't let the grade I give you define if you will be successful in the future. If I give you a low mark today it doesn't mean you will always be unsuccessful. If I give you a high mark today, it doesn't make you a genius and will always have success. You and your actions are the only things that should define you. Don't dwell on your setbacks and don't sit on your loreals, keep moving and keep learning.

These two sample labs are not perfect lab write ups. However, they demonstrate the essential components of what I look for in a lab write up. I don't expect a 100% PERFECT lab write up from you either but the overall accuracy, effort and components must be present. A lab write up is like handing in a formal essay in English/Social class. It is a formal piece of writing and a formal piece of assignment. Take pride in it.
Also please note that, every science teacher has his/her preference to a lab write up. These are mainly cosmetics in nature while the essence of a lab write are the same for most science classes. Just as different companies have slight variations in the way they like to present things, the style of a high school lab write up is not written in stone. Focus on the content and the quality of the work.

Upload the PDF to ChatGPT and ask for advice on areas such as budgeting, course planning, loan repayment, and strategies to help you stay on track to finish your diploma or degree within your desired timeline.
Do this with your PARENT(S) if possible.
Aside: Whether you are allowed to use an Ai in your course(s) is up to the discretion of your instructor. Always respect your instructor! However, in your daily life, I would strongly suggest you figure out if an Ai chatbot powered by a large language model (LLM) has a place in your life and how to make the most use out of it.
