Hello!

I am wondering if my son is supposed to be completing the quizzes and tests for the Integrated Physics & Chemistry, or not?

For example, the lesson today in the guide was to finish pages 7 - 10 in the activity book. At the bottom of page 10, it said to have him ask his teacher (me) for the quiz. I didn’t have him do the quiz since it wasn’t specifically stated in the guide; is Carrie intending for him to complete the quizzes when the activity book states to use them?

We are loving the WG guide!

Thank you!

No. Carrie didn’t schedule tests or quizzes and felt the work that she scheduled (text and activity worksheets) was only worth 1 credit (the publisher considers the entire course - including tests and quizzes - enough for 2 credits).

Some moms have added the tests and quizzes back in and counted it as 2 credits.

I tend to agree with Carrie in that the course as she has scheduled it (without tests/quizzes) is worth 1 credit. My son is able to complete the day’s work in a pretty timely fashion, which to me indicates that 2 credits would be a stretch. But, others may differ in their opinion!

Thank you, Heather!

It’s good to know that he can continue doing it without the quizzes and tests. He only needs 1 credit in science this year with lab so I will have him continue forward. He is enjoying the science a lot.
