All sciences require a lab book. The following document outlines the
requirements.

Specific science book requirements are at the bottom of this page.
Science and
Engineering Lab Books:
Both science
and engineering students need a lab book for each class; a student may not
use the same lab book for both classes. There are several similarities and
differences between how each lab book will be used and graded. This worksheet
is designed to summarize similarities and differences.
Similarities:
-
Both
classes need a standard composition book, with a taped binding and a string
center. The book must be filled with graph paper (not standard lined).
-
Both
classes will only accept capital letter, print writing in their lab book.
This is the standard for science, engineering, and the military because it is
easy to read by all.
-
Students
must have their name, period, the class name and teacher name on the outside
of their lab book in permanent black marker.
-
Writing in
the lab book may only be done in blue or black, ball-point pen.
-
If a
mistake is made in a lab book, white-out is not to be used. Mistakes
are to have a single line written over, a date, and the initials of the
individual.
-
Books will
be numbered only in the upper-outside right-page corner with the first two
pages being reserved for table of contents.
Differences:
-
Science lab
books will begin a new lab on a new page. Engineering note books will have an
entry for everyday.
If you have
any questions about lab or note books, feel free to ask Mr. Baker or Dr.
Kawamura.
