 Science 30 will be wrapped up in a nice holiday bow after tomorrow's lesson! That's right, I will be done teaching the science 30 curriculum tomorrow! That doesn't mean its party time for the kids at all though! It means a lot of work, review and focus still must be done! I am really excited about this week, as we are having a debate in science 30; I have never done a debate in science, and I'm so intrigued as to how it will work out! This unit is also unique, as students will not be required to write a unit test for this unit. In fact, they are required to create a major project INSTEAD of a unit test for this unit. This is based on Rocky View School's Project Based Learning Initiative, which asks students to express their learning in ways other than pen and paper tests! I love it!

 With only 2 weeks left until Winter Break, we will be starting the final unit of Science 30 this week; Unit D Alternative Energies! This is my favourite unit because it is the most applicable unit to real life. At the same time, students who don't complete their work really struggle with this unit, as it is very project based. In fact, there is no unit test in Unit D, as we have a debate and a major project that counts as the unit test. So, like I said, if students don't complete projects, that zero will really hurt!
