The high school students in our local Co-op complete summer assignments. The literature classes typically have a reading list. The Finance/Consumer Math class assigns Dave Ramsay’s high school program. Rob gives the NY Regents Algebra I test to Physics students as a summer assignment, to be sure they have mastered the math necessary to be successful. (Typically, the teens take Algebra II concurrently with Physics.) The NY Math Tests for Grade 8 would work as a summer assignment for Physical Science.
I sent out the summer assignment to the students enrolled in next year’s Chemistry classes. I also added their names as students to Google Chemistey Classroom. I want the students to have plenty of time to complete the project. Clever kiddos can finish the project while they complete their lessons; they are free all summer. Below are three assignments.
Advanced Biology did this Infectious Disease project last summer.
Biology classes create a list of 100 species for a giant food web the teens make during the Ecology modules.
Chemistry classes create a set of Periodic Table cards, based on this JCE article, a Periodic Table card game. Here is the blog post explaining which groups of elements and which colors for each group. Below are a few examples teens made.
