Periodic Updates
Week 3 In Review
Important Dates & Assignments:
- Friday Aug. 14 is our first assessment. Matter, Mass, & Density
- We have done several labs in class. All labs will be scored using a rubric that is shared with students through their Google Drive. Anything not a "3" can, and should, be fixed and turned back in for review. Once reviewed, their rubric will reflect the changes.
- Practice Conversion sheets were given to students last week to work on the process of conversions. Please make sure they are keeping up on the practice.
What happened last week?
- We learned about conversion, SI Units, Significant Figures, and Physical and Chemical Changes.
- We all passed our lab safety quiz!
- We accidentally set off the fire alarm! We learned that our buildings are equipped with very sensitive smoke detectors. All is well and no one was ever in danger.
From the desk of Mr. Terry:
We are rolling along very quickly as we have now completed 3 weeks of Chemistry. The students are getting back into the normal swing of things and once again feeling the weight of what we are trying to do at CBA. The students have been trying to "own their learning" by doing what they need to do whether it is for a grade or not. We want to practice the lifeskills of "personal best" and "perseverance" as we get into required projects, assessments, and practice. Encourage your student to learn strategies to be more organized and use a planner system to keep up with important dates and assignments. If you have any questions for me or feel you student needs tutoring please email me so we can set this up. Have a great week!
