Grade 10 Science - Final Project
Topic areas - Biology, Force, Chemistry, and Weather
During the week of January 14th-20th you will be in the computer labs working on the
following group (2 people per group!!) project. This project is worth 20% of your final
mark!!!!
Your project will be a 5 to 7 minute presentation in which you may choose to do a power
point, a poster presentation, or any other oral presentation of a topic you have chosen.
Your topic must connect 2 subtopics covered in the three major units that we covered in
this class (ex. Biology, Force, Chemistry, and Weather). Note: These subtopics must
come from 2 different units.
You and your partner will present during the time of your regularly scheduled exam
for Science 10. Period 2 will be Monday, January 24th @ 8:30 am and Period 4 will be
Tuesday, January 25th @ 8:30 am.
You and your partner will have to keep a Daily Log of your work that will be worth 20%
of your total mark for this project. These will be kept by your teacher and handed out at
the beginning of each class. If you are absent during this work week you will be
responsible for your own presentation. If you miss days that force one member of the
group to do more of the work, then your mark on the project will reflect your lack of
contribution.
Your project must include a minimum of 3 references; with at least one of them being a
non-internet source. (See our teacher librarian to find out the proper format to show a
reference)
