Grade changes
Remember if you are unhappy with a score you received on an assignment in your Science Interactive Notebook improve the assignment and bring it to me before or after school for a regrade. Can earn full credit if done correctly. We are always learning! 
Assignments must be made up before the Notebook Check for that unit. Once we finish a unit you can not get an assignment regraded. Please be sure to make all changes and bring them in BEFORE the notebook check for that unit!!
Be sure to check the Table of Contents often to make sure you have all assignments! 
 
ONCE THE NOTEBOOK HAS BEEN GRADED FOR THAT UNIT ASSIGNMENTS CAN NO LONGER BE BROUGHT IN FOR A HIGHER SCORE.
NOTEBOOK CHECKS ARE FINAL!
BE SURE TO FIX ALL ASSIGNMENTS BEFORE THE NOTEBOOK CHECK!
