SNC 2P

Electronics Policy

There is a NO TOLERANCE POLICY for electronics in the classroom.  

Any device brought to class will be placed in the "Cell Phone Garage" (kept at the side of the classroom; visible at all times).  

I will not be responsible for the security of devices in the garage, so if you a re concerned that your electronic device will be lost or stolen, DO NOT BRING IT TO CLASS.  

If you wish to use a tablet or laptop for lessons/HW, please speak to me first.

Before we can get into the science, we have some paper work to get out of the way.  Please have your parents look over the three documents posted below, as well as checking out the rest of the information. 

On a piece of paper, write "We have read and understood the CIS, syllabus and safety rules."  Sign this paper yourself.  Have your parent/guardian sign this paper and send me a picture of it on Edsby.

Assessments

Each assessment will contain some or all of the TACK categories.  Each category has a weighting, which is mandated by the GECDSB:

T - Thinking and Inquiry - 35%

A - Application/Making Connections - 15%

C - Communication - 15%

K - Knowledge & Understanding - 35%

To have a general idea of your class mark throughout the semester, you can use the percentages above, in combination with the values on your returned assessments, to calculate:

Approximate Class Mark* = 0.35 (sum of T marks) + 0.15 (sum of A marks) + 0.15 (sum of C marks) + 0.35 (sum of K marks)

Final SNC 2P Mark = 0.70 (semester work) + 0.30 (final summative assessment)

*Your final mark will be determined using triangulation (a combination of teacher observations, student-teacher conversations and student products (assessments)). 

 

Ok, Sabre peeps, let's get sciency!
