Monday/Tuesday, 3/4 December, 2012




These four handouts accompany the notes for Mixtures. Be sure to complete the Venn diagram and the 3 column notes. Make sure your first page is a Cornell Notes page, complete with the 3 Costa's leveled questions, and a summary of the notes. Make sure you use highlighters to coordinate the questions and answers.


Students will be able to:
-classify and/or compare substances on the basis of their physical properties and/or explain that these properties are independent of the amount of the sample.
-differentiate among pure substances, mixtures, and solutions, including components in different sates of matter.

Students did a formative assessment probe on sugar water for their bell ringer. Students had to explain why certain statements were true about a solution of sugar and water.

Students completed the notes form last week on acids and bases. 

Students then did this week's notes on mixtures. The benchmark is SC.8.P.8.4. The topic is mixtures. You can find the handouts that were included at the top of this blog.

Students began remediation on the topics heat transfer and classification.

Science Fair Projects are due in class tomorrow!
