Science: 1st Hour worked on their conclusion and critique reflection. I noticed that many students did NOT have their data analysis completed, which means they have a lot to finish this weekend! 3rd hour had the option to either work on their rough drafts or the test review. 1st & 3rd hour rough drafts are due on Monday for peer review.  5th-7th hour peer reviewed their rough drafts. Attached is the checklist used for peer review as well as the grading rubric.  Next week 5th-7th hour will take the Unit 1 test on Wednesday and 1st & 3rd hour will take the test on Thursday. Final drafts of the lab for all classes are due on Friday.
