5/26/20 - 5/29/20 (Week 5 Graded Instruction):
PLEASE READ ENTIRE MESSAGE FOR AN IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT: Congratulations Seniors! We're in the final stretch. I'm making this week's assignments extra credit so you can really boost your grade if need be. The only item that is NOT extra credit is the Week 5 Survey. If you don't need extra credit, focus on completing any Week 1-4 worksheet and/or test that still needs to be submitted.
In the Week 5 survey, you'll be asked to identify any items that you turned in and are still showing a zero in grade book. It is EXTREMELY important you complete the survey correctly because it lets me know what assignments I need to go back and grade. If you don't do the survey accurately, your grade will remain a permanent zero for items submitted. The Week 5 Survey (click here) is due Friday 5/29 @ 10am. The only thing I'm requiring you to do next week (6/1 - 6/5) is the Week 6 Survey. To access the survey, please check back here on the schedule tab next Monday at 10am. Not only will the survey help me take attendance for the week, but it is also worth points and let's me know what late work I need to grade. So PLEASE don't forget :)!
This week you'll learn about marine ecosystems. After completing the week 5 survey, your next task is to access the Week 5 worksheet and article in google classroom. See google classroom codes below.
