If a student is shy about speaking publicly, then the presentation can be video taped, placed on a cd or dvd for display on the monitor. Homework is where students make mistakes. MCAS preparation will be included for grades 9 and 10. Class time will involve videos, hands-on projects, labs, cooperative learning, student presentations, independent research, web quests, project presentations, group activities, student teachers, peer editing, and lecture. Parents and students are welcome to email my home, at any time, if they have questions or concerns.
Communication is crucial to a successful year.
