Materials Needed:  You will need notebook or loose paper.  You will need a calculator during certain chapters of science.  You may use a pen or pencil.  A ruler would also be useful.  Textbooks are to be covered.

 

 

Laboratory Exercises:  In Physical Science we will do a variety of lab activities.  In order to participate in the lab activities you will be required to read and sign a safety agreement.  You will often work with a partner in the lab.

 

 

Grading:  Points are used to calculate grades.  Grades are weighted 60% tests and projects and 40% daily work, labs and quizzes.   Grades are then issued based on the following scale:

     


Grade                   Minimum Percent

A                           96.5

A-                            93.5

B+                         91.5

B                           88.5

B-                            86.5

C+                         84.5                

C                           81.5

C-                          79.5

D+                         76.5

D                           72.5

D-                          69.5
