Thursday December 18, 2008

Today in SCIENCE we:

  • Tried to do Current Events....not good people.
  • Reviewed how to count elements, atoms, molecules & compounds....can you figure out how many components are in a formula? Do you know how to write a formula?
  • You had time in class today to complete the following: TSQ4R sia9 p150-153, omit p151, DO c&r p 153 #1-7. THEN you were to design & create a poster/title page that demonstrates your UNDERSTANDING of the similarities and DIFFERENCES between MOLECULAR & IONIC compounds. These 3 (three) tasks are due first thing the day we get back from winter break. WEEK 5, Day 2, so that is 9AM sharp.
  • Do you remember what a Venn diagram is? Hint (2) TWO circles that overlap.
  • Some of you used your time very well this class. GOOD WORK.
  • We also watched a bit of a Body Worlds dvd. What was that about? Why would I want you to see that?
  • An INDEPENDENT LEARNER would REVIEW MATTER & CHEMICAL CHANGE for at least 10 minutes EVERY day over the break. It is just a suggestion....a strong suggestion.

HAPPY HOLIDAYS 9C!
