Science Notebooks:
This year we will be using science notebooks. Much of your homework, research, labs, data, notes, etc. will be kept in this notebook. Your notebook is essential to your grade, therefore, it is extremely important for you to maintain an accurate, neat, and organized notebook and to make sure you have it in class every single day. You will have a mailbox in which to keep your notebook, folder, etc.
