Are you having to do your Science in the News Report tomorrow?
I am. I'm going to do so bad. I'm getting loads of information off the internet now.
How well do you think you're going to do?

When I was in Year 10, we didn't do this, but I remember doing how the sun can effect you because of the sun rays which cause cancer for example. Good luck anyway. ;)

[Tristan]

Thanks. :P
I think it is a new curriculum or syllabus or whatever. Lol.
It goes towards 20% of one of our GCSE grades I believe?

30% from first test - Done.
30% from second test - Not done.
20% from best graded Science in the News Report /3 - 1 Done.
10% from 8 best graded 'can do tasks' - Loads done.
