<span style="font-family: Georgia,serif;">The following applies to all HS Science Classes:
<span style="font-family: Georgia,serif;">English Language Learning (ELL) support will be provided by reinforcing key vocabulary and concepts. This is achieved through vocabulary challenges, supported and modified reading assignments and extra assistance in writing reports and responses. Extra time will also be given to students to complete assessments.

<span style="font-family: Georgia,serif;">Assignments and Assessments:
<span style="font-family: Georgia,serif;">There will be homework assigned almost every class in the form of reading, writing, completing class work, working on projects, or studying for assessments. Class-work will be assigned regularly to reinforce concepts and develop skills. Quizzes will be given at the end of each chapter to assess mastery of the objectives. Quizzes can be retaken to show mastery. After each unit there will be a summative unit test. There is a lab once every two weeks with formal written reports for 2 labs a quarter. There are also projects assigned for each unit of study.
