Notebook Review Monday
Some of you have been asking what should be in your notebook for Monday. I’ll be checking your FCAT Review section and the classwork/homework section on astronomy. You should have daily reflections. Those days where we started class with summaries of what you learned will qualify as reflections for the day before. Below is a list of what I’ll look for. Review the grading rubric http://mysciencespace.com/documents/Science%20Class%20Rubric.pdf to see how they will be graded.

DOES IT HAVE TO BE IN ORDER.
EH?
Notebooks should be in date order. If they are, then you are fine. The exact dates we did some items will vary somewhat from class to class.
Are you going to be checking our reflections too??
Yes, you should have daily reflections. In case you have forgotten about reflections here’s the post describing them.
