Mr. Perezs Keys to Success in Science
  • Students should
  • Review the class notes and homework sheets daily
    (even if homework is not assigned or finished in
    class). ALL of the answers on homework
    assignments can be found in the notes.
  • Take detailed notes when collecting data during
    labs. Refer back to the notes when answering lab
    questions. Participate!
  • Attend extra-help (and bring binders to review
    the class notes or homework assignments).
  • Look over and review the End-of-Unit reminder
    sheets, which will be given out about one week
    before each unit test.
  • Study the notes (as opposed to just reading
    through them).
  • How? Index cards are a great for vocabulary
    building, but have your child explain the
    open-ended questions to you (which will be listed
    on the End-of-Unit reminder sheets).
  • 6. Complete the Castle Learning assignments days
    before they are due, NOT on the eve of the due
    date.

Multi-Unit Test and Final Exam
  • The multi-unit test will count as TWO test grades
    for the second marking period
  • The final exam will count as TWO test grades for
    the fourth marking period
  • At the end of each unit students will be asked to
    clear out their notes and homework assignments.
  • Save these sheets in a folder at home. Find a
    place where they will not get thrown away (like a
    closet).
  • We will spend time in school reviewing for the
    multi-unit test. The students will be given
    review packets.
  • We will spend one day reviewing each topic at the
    end of the year. The students will have 10-12
    review packets to study for the final exam.
