Science 10:

Thanks for attending our first meeting yesterday.  We discussed these items:

-Keep working!  Keep developing your skills.  3 hours per week of focused learning for Science 10 is a good amount.
-This blog is the key source for basic information.  It will direct you to Teams, where you can find our course materials in your Class Notebook.  Instructions for Astronomy started on April 6th, and will end on April 30th.
-Make a good space for yourself somewhere in your house where you can focus and work efficiently.  Earplugs are amazing for providing a quiet space, anywhere!
-Your course mark will be determined from your Term 3 grades (visible on myed), your participation in this new online learning since Spring Break, and the quality of your communication (emails, discussion posts, phone calls, etc).  I admit, I am not quite sure how to assess your knowledge yet, I am working on that.

Astronomy officially ends on April 30.  Click here to see the Astronomy Unit Outline.

Next week, we will pick up with the Genetics Unit, and Teams lessons will happen twice weekly.  Please email Mr. Gale with a preference for when you would to have our twice weekly meetings.


Capstone 12:

If you haven't spoken to me (or your counsellor) about Capstone 12 please contact me at the school between 9:00 and 3:30.  Most of you are working on presentations and will do a practice round in the last week of April or first week of May.  Contact me if you have any questions or difficulties with your Capstone project.
