Monday, May 13th

05/13/2013

 
Homework:
 - Complete the two activities (handout 165 and handout 167) and the notes (handout 166) from today. For handout 165, use the card sheet. For handout 166, use the presentation slides. And, for handout 167, use the mineral data tables.

Test tomorrow:
Your closed note, unit 11 test is tomorrow. We've talked about this several times now so it should not be a surprise. You may update your study guide though by removing the following from the back:
 - Remove the words crystallization, silicates, carbonates, and oxides from the vocabulary.
 - Cross off questions 11-14 on the back side.

Your test will be multiple choice, matching, some math, some application, and very, very few open-ended questions. It will cover everything in unit 11 (handouts 137-167). It will focus on mineral characteristics and properties, how to identify minerals, and how we classify minerals. You are not expected to know the mineral groups for the test, but you are expected to know in general how minerals are classified.

Handouts:
You received three handouts in class today:
 - Handout 165: Mineral Classification Activity 2
 - Handout 166: Mineral Groups Notes
 - Handout 167: Mineral Classification Activity 3
