Below are the “Evidences of Learning” Options You will only choose ONE of each for a total of 5 assignments.
Evidence 1 Monmers/Polymers – choose ONE
Mono/Polymer Option 1 (worksheet)
Mono/Polymer Option 2 (mini-lab activity)
Evidence 2 Structure - choose ONE
Structure Option 1 (worksheet)
Structure Option 2 (card sort)
Evidence 3 Function- choose ONE
Function Option 1 (reading)
Function Option 2 (On Line)
Function Option 3 (card sort)
Evidence 4 Enzymes – choose ONE
Enzymes Option 1 (worksheet)
Enzymes Option 2 (reading)
Evidence 5 Vocabulary - choose ONE
Vocabulary Option 1 (matching)
Vocabulary Option 2 (image/def scrolls) **vocabulary will be turned in for its own separate grade – there is no oral defense**
Checkpoint – 9/13/2017 - whole class assignment
Checkpoint Complete
Test: Biomolecules – 9/26/2017
BAT review should be completed
DUE DATES:
9-12 : Signed off on Evidence 1: Monomers/Polymers
9-13 : Signed off on Evidence 2: Structures
9-14 : Signed off on Evidence 3: Function
9-18 : Signed off on Evidence 4: Enzymes
9-20 : Vocabulary Due
9-21 : Last Day to sign off on Evidences
9-26 : Review Due/TEST DAY /

You will need to complete only ONE option for Evidences 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5.You must be signed off (orally defend) on all levels by 9/21/16 but you are limited to no more than 2 oral defenses a day – including tutorials. So, don’t wait unitl the last day to sign off or you will not receive credit for missing levels.

Each Evidence that are signed off will equal one Daily Grade.

To get signed off you must be able to “defend” your work and prove knowledge of the material. You will be asked 2 to 4 questions about each level assignment. If you answer the questions successfully you get credit. If you do not answer them successfully you will have to choose another option from the level you cannot defend and repeat the process.

*Be careful, keep an eye on the calendar, due dates are not postponed due to failures or poor time management on your part. If you don’t get signed off by the designated times, you may lose credit.
