Posts

Sorry I have not posted to the blog in quite a while. I have realized that a daily post will be a bit much. I will post once a week with an overview of the week and what to expect.

This week the students have a vocab quiz on the following terms (on quizlet):
1. period
2. group
3. metals
4. transition metals
5. nonmetals
6. valence electrons
7. alkali metals
8. alkaline earth metals
9. halogens
10. noble gases

They will be finishing up Chapter 4 (atoms and elements) and starting chapter 5 (the periodic table). Their test will be the week after Camp Greenville (Oct 18th and 19th). They will be having an element names and symbols quiz at the beginning of each week for the next 8 weeks.

HW- the students should be reviewing notes on a regular basis, studying for quizzes, and completing any assignments not finished in class (ex. M&M lab, coloring the periodic table, etc.)

Projects- the element project is due this week
