COMMENTS: blurb 1=This quarter in science we began the quarter by reviewing the scientific method and designing our own experiment. We then moved on to studying the properties of matter, such as mass, weight, and density, and then applied these concepts to properties of water. These fundamentals have laid out the groundwork for our next units on atmosphere and weather. 2=This quarter in science we applied our first quarter lessons on properties of matter in order to understand atmosphere and weather. We learned how to read weather maps and what causes different types of weather and how hurricanes occur. We also had a unit on addiction, alcohol, tobacco and drugs. We looked at what causes addiction, and what each drug physically does to the body and mind. At the end of the quarter, the students went online as drug scene investigators to investigate imaginary 3=-------- 4=This quarter in science we have been focusing on the scientific method and on chemistry. We started the year reviewing the scientific method and creating our own lab procedures in order to get them to use their critical thinking skills. We then moved onto chemistry, looking at the make up of an atom and how different parts of the atom can cause changes about the atom�s properties. We also did an extensive study on nuclear decay and radioactivity. 5=This quarter in science studied the trends within the periodic table and how the periodic table is organized. Students then used this knowledge to predict how elements come together to form molecules via ionic and covalent bonds. We experimented with behavioral differences between covalent and ionic bonds and which ions readily bond and which ones do not. We learned about conservation of matter and how to balance chemical equations with mathematics, manipulatives and computer simulations.

COMMENTS: opening C 1=#N has #RatingList in the #quarter quarter of science. 2=#N has been #RatingList2 in the #quarter quarter of science. 3=#N is a bright student, but I feel that #e has not been applying #s. 4=#N had a rough start to the quarter and #e made great strides towards the end of the quarter. COMMENTS: participation. 1=I am very pleased to see that #e has been very active in discussions with a lot of positive energy. 2=#E is #AUR attentive in class and participates in class discussions #willingencourage. 3=#E is attentive in class and willingly participates in group discussion and goes beyond just answering questions. 4=#E is asking some good questions that bring about interesting discussions. 5=------------------------- 6=#E is attentive during lessons and is willing to answer questions, but I would like to see #m begin to contribute #h thoughts and go beyond just answering questions. 7=I would love to see #m participate more in class as I believe that #h could add a lot to the class discussions. 8=One goal for next quarter would be for #m to ask questions when #e does not understand. I understand that #e may be shy, but I encourage #m to take #h charge of #h learning. COMMENTS: personal comment 1=#? COMMENTS: personal comment 2 1=#? COMMENTS: Progress so far year 7 1=#N has demonstrated a good grasp of particles specifically when explaining changes in states. 2=#N has demonstrated a good grasp of particles specifically when describing the particle model in different contexts. 3=#N has demonstrated a good grasp of particles specifically when measuring solubility and presenting results in a suitable table. 4=#N has demonstrated a good grasp of cells specifically when identifying cell organelles. 5=#N has demonstrated a good grasp of cells specifically when researching specialised cells. 6=#N has demonstrated a good grasp of cells specifically when measuring diffusion in cells using given apparatus. 7=#N has demonstrated a good grasp of the atomic structure and bonding. In particular #e has made pleasing progress with using the atomic number of elements to find them in the periodic table. 8=#N has demonstrated a good grasp of the atomic structure and bonding. In particular #e has made pleasing progress with drawing electron shells. 9=#N has spent a considerable amount of time away from the classroom so far this year and as such providing a meaningful comment on progress made is very difficult. Improving attendance is a must for future success. 10=#N needs to spend more time revising for tests and should seek clarification from the teacher when #e does not understand concepts taught in class. 11=#N's grade would improve if #e spent time revising material taught in class before tests and exams. #E should also seek clarification from #h teacher when #e does not understand concepts taught in class. 12=I encourage #N to seek clarification on any concept that #e has not fully understood and to revise #h work consistently to gain a deeper knowledge, especially in the lead up to tests and exams. 13=#E would also benefit from more thorough and conscientious note taking skills. 14=#N would also benefit from a more thorough and conscientious approach to #h note taking skills. 15=#N's exam result shows #e still has some areas that require extra work and I encourage #h to ask more questions in class to consolidate #h learning. I would also like to see #N maintain a regular revision program especially in the lead up to #h exams. 16=Whilst #h overall result is pleasing, I would like to see #N revise #h work more thoroughly in the lead up to exams and to consult more frequently with #h teacher to facilitate a deeper understanding. 17=I encourage #N to seek more assistance from #h teacher to help deepen #h understanding of the more difficult scientific concepts #e is yet to master. COMMENTS: Progress to be made year 7 1=#N needs to make similar progress with drawing and plotting scatter graphs without support in order to maintain #h current level of progress. 2=#N needs to make similar progress with describing the particle model in different contexts in order to maintain #h current level of progress. 3=#N needs to make similar progress with explaining solubility in everyday scenarios in order to maintain #h current level of progress. 4=#N needs to make similar progress with ionic bonding in order to maintain #h current level of progress. 5=#N needs to make similar progress with drawing electron shells in order to maintain #h current level of progress. 6=#N needs to spend more time revising for tests and should seek clarification from the teacher when #e does not understand concepts taught in class. 7=#N's grade would improve if #e spent time revising material taught in class before tests and exams. #E should also seek clarification from #h teacher when #e does not understand concepts taught in class. 8=I encourage #N to seek clarification on any concept that #e has not fully understood and to revise #h work consistently to gain a deeper knowledge, especially in the lead up to tests and exams. 9=I encourage #N to set #s a study timetable to ensure #e is adequately prepared in the lead up to #h exams. 10=#E would also benefit from more thorough and conscientious note taking skills. 11=#N would also benefit from a more thorough and conscientious approach to #h note taking skills. 12=#N's exam result shows #e still has some areas that require extra work and I encourage #h to ask more questions in class to consolidate #h learning.

COMMENTS: suggest 1=#E is bright and I encourage #h to start next quarter out on a strong note rather than scrambling at the end to bring it up. 2=I believe that with just a little more effort on #h part, we will see an improvement in #h grade. 3=One suggestion for #N is to not give up so easily. I often see that if it doesn't come to #m immediately, #e won't push #s until #e gets it. With a little more "stick to it", #e could excel. 4=I also recommend that #e come in for extra help a day or two before a test. 5=#E also has a tendency to do the minimum possible to get by. #E is smart and should take pride in #h work. COMMENTS: Summing-up sentence 1=#N has grown to be a #StrengthOfStudent student and will #LevelOfSuccess of Year 11. 2=#N has made steady progress so far this year. 3=#E would benefit from additional focus in class and should work on time management in order to be successful in science. 4=#N's behavior in class has #? and will #? as #e moves into year 11. COMMENTS: Targets 1=In order to improve, #N now needs to: • Avoid all distractions in class, complete set work and mark classwork in green pen. • Complete all set tasks on Doddle homework. • Complete and memorise all core knowledge questions in the module workbook. 2=#E would benefit from additional focus in class and should work on time management in order to be successful in science. 3=#N's behavior in class has #? and will #? as #e moves into year 11. 4=#N has grown to be a #StrengthOfStudent student and will #LevelOfSuccess in high school. COMMENTS: test suggest 1=I would encourage #m to come in during extra help from time to time when #e doesn�t understand something. 2=I would encourage #m to come in for after school help a day or two before a test. 3=I believe that #e is not always studying for #h tests and using the planner to mark down upcoming tests would be helpful. 4=In particular, #e struggled in the area of #testarea and I suggest #e review this area before finals COMMENTS: tests 1=#H test scores #testing this quarter. 2=#N's weak area this quarter was #? and I recommend that #e review and get a better grasp of this topic before finals. 3=However, #h test scores do not reflect #h science ability and may need to spend more time preparing for tests. 4=Overall, #e does well, but #h test scores fluctuate which indicates that #e may not be grasping everything. 5=----------- 6=I would encourage #m to come in during extra help from time to time when #e doesn�t understand something. 7=I would encourage #m to come in for after school help a day or two before a test. 8=I believe that #e is not always studying for #h tests and using the planner to mark down upcoming tests would be helpful.
