CWCS’s a-g Biology online course offers students the opportunity to study at home while employing technology as a learning tool, meeting with other students in a virtual classroom, and receiving live instruction from a teacher. Additionally, students will sign up for a face-to-face lab that will meet once per month. It is Connecting Waters’ goal that learning experiences be as accessible as possible. If you anticipate or experience physical or academic barriers based on disability or illness, please let me know immediately so that we can discuss options.

All tests and assignments will be posted in the course calendar in Canvas. This is an advanced course and requires that students study every day.
Please note that this class needs a lab. Please have your ES sign you up for a lab in SIS
Please note: The pacing guide is subject to change. Any change will be posted in the Canvas calendar. Students enrolled in the course should be checking the Canvas homepage for up-to-date and detailed assignments.
Curriculum:
Required curriculum may be available at the Learning Center on a first come basis. If needed, ESs can order curriculum using the OPS catalog which will have the most up-to-date pricing. Students will need:
2020 California Miller & Levine Experience Biology: the Living Earth 3-Course Model (CA)(Hardcover) by Kenneth R. Miller & Joseph S. Levine ***ISBN-13: 9781418329532
Materials:
- Working external headset with mic (computer speakers do not work successfully with the Canvas setup). Plug-in headsets (rather than Bluetooth) work best with Jigsaw. After the third week of class and no headset, students may begin to lose participation points for the class. Class is much more engaging if all students can talk in class using their mic. Suggested: Office Depot Logitech Clear-Chat

Attendance
Attendance is required. The Truancy Policy applies to Canvas courses. An unexcused absence may be counted as a truancy.
- Excused Absence is defined as:
The parent shall notify the teacher by phone of the absence at least 24 hours* prior to the time the class meets. - Unexcused Absence is defined as:
An absence that does not go with a parent phone call to the instructor at least 24 hours* prior to the time the class meets.
*If there are extenuating circumstances that do not allow for at least 24 hours, then the teacher must still be notified prior to the start of class; allowances may be made depending on the circumstances. Examples of extenuating circumstances: car accident, sudden illness, etc. Students should arrange a "back up plan" in case of unexpected computer problems the day of the class (i.e., plan to go to a neighbor, friend, relative, library, etc.)
When students are absent, they must contact the instructor via email or contact another classmate to obtain the homework assignment.
Absent/Late Work:
TESTS: Late work will not be accepted after the Test due date unless I am notified of a special circumstance.
Assignments: Everyday an assignment is late, the grade is reduced by 1%. Lowest possible grade is 80% of the percentage scored. At 21 days late it is a permanent 0.
- Weekly Reading & Notes
- Class attendance & participation
- Weekly Assignment * Please see the instructions below for Parent Educator Instructions & Grading
- Weekly Progress Quiz
- Weekly learning Journal Submission
All homework will be submitted through Canvas. You can submit a Word document, PDF or Google Doc (download as a PDF and upload to Canvas). Emailed assignments will not be accepted. All communication will be made through Canvas’ email feature.
Attendance & Participation
You are expected to attend class and participate in group discussions and activities weekly. This will be 10% of your final grade. The other 10% of your participation grade will be based on your weekly Learning Journal. Every week you will submit a journal entry about something you learned, found interesting, surprised you, enjoyed, disliked. Then you will comment on at least one other classmate’s journal entry.
Homework overseen by the Parent Educator
The weekly reading and weekly assignments will be overseen and graded by the parent educator. This will make up 20% of the student’s course grade. Students will complete their assignments right in their science notebook and complete weekly comprehension and vocabulary assignments. The Parent Educator will grade these assignments and will submit these assignments through your ES twice each semester. However, it is the Parent Educator’s job to make sure your student does not fall behind on his/her reading and assignments. The results will show up in weekly quizzes and tests.
Weekly Progress Quizzes
Did you know that it has been scientifically proven that we learn more from our wrong answers than our correct answers? The weekly progress quizzes are a tool to help you test your understanding, and help you get an easy 100. You may take weekly quizzes as many times as you need until you get a 100! Quizzes will be open for 1 week. Wrong answers will give you feedback and extra videos or articles to help deepen your understanding. When the assignments close, I will post your last grade.
Summative Tests - open notes
Tests must be completed within a 48-hour time frame. This is NOT a group project. Summative tests are testing your own learning development. You may not work with anyone else. You may not use the internet. BUT a good scientist keeps a good, organized notebook. So, you may use your notes. Be sure to take excellent notes with a few examples. As you take your progress quizzes and find areas that you need to deepen your learning, use your notebook. Organize your notes according to topic. Be sure to include all vocabulary.
Labs
Your lab grade will make up 20% of your overall grade. It is essential that you come to class prepared or you will not be able to participate. Labs require closed toed shoes, long pants, no loose clothing or dangling jewelry, and long hair restrained. These are long labs (3 hours) so eat before you come to class. Food and drink are NOT allowed in the science lab. Usually there will also be a pre lab that will need to be completed before you come to class. This ensures safety of you and your classmates as well as a productive exciting learning experience.
Final Exam (& Project?)
The final exam is a proctored exam held on campus. I could add a project to the syllabus as part of this 20% as well. I have not decided on what this should be, but projects are my favorite way of demonstrating learning. I will involve the students in this decision-making process as well as watch what opportunities are available both for the winter and spring semesters.

Approved: August 20, 2018
It is the policy of Connecting Waters Charter Schools that all school personnel, staff, students, and students' parents are required to be civil in all their interpersonal school-related interactions.
Civility does not require an unqualified agreement or conformity of opinion. Under no circumstances will un-civil conduct at any school-related activity be tolerated.
For purposes of this policy, to be civil means to act with self-discipline in a courteous, respectful and orderly manner in every interpersonal communication and behavior. It also means that a person will treat other people as he or she would like to be treated.
Un-civil conduct includes, but is not limited to:
- using an inappropriately loud voice;
- using profane, vulgar, or obscene words or gestures;
- belittling, jeering, or taunting; using personal epithets;
- using violent or aggressive gestures or body-language;
- repeatedly and inappropriately interrupting another speaker;
- repeatedly demanding personal attention at inappropriate times;
- purposefully and inappropriately invading personal space;
- purposefully ignoring appropriate communications;
- wrongfully interfering with another person's freedom of movement;
- wrongfully invading another person's private possessions; or,
- any other behavior that inappropriately disrupts school-related activities.
An expression of disagreement or a discussion of a controversial viewpoint is not uncivil if such expression or discussion is appropriately presented and does not disrupt a school-related activity.
Any school personnel who are un-civil shall be subject to disciplinary action. Any student that is un-civil shall be subject to an administrative hearing and review for expulsion or dismissal.
In the event that any student's parent is un-civil during a school-related activity, school personnel to whom the un-civility is directed shall immediately tell the parent to communicate or act civilly. If the parent fails to correct the un-civil behavior as directed, the affected school personnel shall notify the parent that the school activity is immediately terminated for them and their student(s), and the affected school personnel shall refer the matter to school administrative personnel for further administrative or legal action, which may include, but may not be limited to, a prohibition from any further participation in school-related activities.
