Salaam alaykum,

Today we are going to begin the science program. If you are in 9th grade, you will be taking Biology. Tenth and 11th grade will be starting with Chemistry and move up once I receive transcripts.

Go to []. the same as the Wikispaces site and your password will be "password" (unless you changed it.)

Once you are in, you will click on your appropriate science course. Please do the following steps and ONLY ask for help if you really need it.

1) Click on "course information" and go to "pace charts." At this point, I want EVERYBODY to do the traditional pace (we can always change it). Print out the Traditional pace chart and place it in your Binder. There is a hole puncher in the front on my desk.

2) On your pace chart, you will write in next Thursday's date for week 1 (9/22).

3) You will do the same for each week after that, putting each week's date for Thursday. (example: week 2 is due 9/29, week 3 due 10/06, etc...)

4) Next, print the "lab safety rules," read it, and sign the bottom. important that you read**.** Bring it to me so I sign it. Hole punch and put in binder.

5) Print up the "materials" page. Hole punch and binder.

6) **Read** the both links under "teacher items". You **do not** need to print.

7) I have blue tape so you can write your name on your binder.

8) If you finish early, start on Module 1.0 and 1.1.

9) 9th graders, you will need to print up the page on Module 1.0. This is your checklist for this Module. Hole punch and well, you know the rest =)

Let me know if you have any questions. QUIETLY.
