Welcome to grade 10 academic Science hope you enjoyed the summer. We will be starting in the biology unit to make use of some of the rich life right in our own backyard. Don't be fooled by it, there is a LOT of memory work in biology if you wish to excel, so start reviewing terms weekly and make use of the word calendar as you can bring it in for tests!
