AnnouncementsHighly Effective Answers
On all work, I expect everyone to try their best to answer the questions. Work is not given to keep you busy. REPETITION is the key to learning science... Homework and class work is given to help you keep repeating and applying what we are covering in class. It will be very important for you to detail your answer when completing work because it will help reinforce the information.
