Welcome to 5th Grade Science

SCIENCE IS  IMPORTANT AND  INTEGRAL PART OF LEARNING

    Welcome !!! Back. It is my pleasure to introduce myself as  Vandna Guleria and this is my third year teaching Science at St. Mary's. It is crucial for kids to start developing their thought process early on towards carving out their future careers in the field of science. I will put all my effort in making this subject interesting so that they will enjoy learning.

    This year we are having an amazing group of kids and I have high hopes that they will be doing well in this academic year. My agenda is to thoroughly teach them in class and assign minimum homework. In addition, they just have to spend 15-20 minutes a day towards revision at home.

    There are certain things which I would like to give a heads on for the students 1) Students are expected to participate in daily class activities, complete class work reports or other projects on time 2) There will be a test after completion of each chapter 3) The homework assignments should be  completed on time or 5 points will be deducted for late submission each day. The late submission will only be accepted no later than three days after the due date. After this time period no home work will be accepted. 

Grading Criteria

   Oral participation/activities                 25%
   Homework/Class work                        25%
    Class Test                                         50%

All scores on tests and assignments will be based on 100 points.  

Things required for class:
1) Science text book (will be allocated to students and should be returned at the end of the    school session).
2) Science binder.
3) Stationary as per required (pencils, pens, erasers, calculators, etc.).

Study Plan: For the week of August 16, 2017

This week students will get to know each other, learn about class procedures/rules, science safety procedures and science curriculum.
