text: extra credit in science? i'm a freshmen in high school and i totally suck at science. i've failed every test yet still manage a b-, then i failed the last 2 assignments so i have a c+ now. what would be a good way to surprise my teacher with a great extra credit report or something to show him that i am actually good at science. work hard, turn in all assignments, and show that you're putting effort into your work, even if your answers may be wrong.  like my history teacher says, "i don't care if you fail every stupid test in my class...if you turn in all your homework and classwork, and do the best you can on everything, i'm proud of ya'".  the teachers can see the effort.
