8th Grade Earth Science  
 
 

Hello,

My name is Charlene Kelso- Lindsey and this is my 5th year in education.  I have a BS degree in Biology from Knoxville College and my Teacher Certification from Fisk University.  Prior to completing the teacher certification program, I did three years in the Army as a Medical Specialist.


  The goals of this course will introduce students to the basic concepts of Earth Science.  The course should provide students with a good foundation for building more knowledge of science at higher levels, specifically, chemistry, physics, and biology. 

Grading:

Grades will be based on the following:

Class work/Homework

Lab

Quizzes and Tests

Notebooks

Grading scale: 

100-93 = A

92-85 = B

84-75 = C

74-70 = D

69 & below = U

Make up Work:

Knox County School policy allows students to make up missed work per how many days the student is absent.

Classroom Guidelines:  Each year the students come up with their Class Constitution and those are the rules we abide by throughout the year. 

Contact Information:  If there are any questions or concerns, you may call the school at 594-4461 to set up an appointment.
