Vocabulary words will be located here for each unit and are due the day of the vocabulary quiz. The format discussed in class will be used for the words, definition and picture.
Use the Science text book only to define the words in your spiral notebook . The Ecology Unit has 30 vocabulary words and the students are required to have twenty (20) pictures. All definitions must come from the life science text book, the online textbook or from the teacher. The words must be numbered and pictures can be drawn with this unit only The words must be contained in a notebook. The on line book can be used at www.hrw.com. Students will have user names and passwords. Extra pictures result in extra credit. I will be giving the students a chart with vocabulary words and a sheet of definitions. They can cut and paste the definitions and put in their notebook.
