MAGAZINE REVIEWS -- rationale
In order to meet Nebraska and U.S. Health Standards (2.1), students are expected to evaluate and apply current health information to themselves. All Health students will be expected to select any 3 articles from the Current Health magazine supplied to them, answer the accompanying questions and hand it in on the appropriate due date. (or before) The student will staple the 3 reviews together in any order they wish. The teacher will select 1 of the reviews at random and multiply that grade times 3. HEALTH GRADING --explanation of points Each quarter's possible points: 2 months (6) magazine reviews 600 pts 2-4 tests (200 pts each) 400-800 pts. Daily work (100 pts each) 500-600 pts.
