Preparing for the first unit test - September 6, 2011

Practice makes perfect is a good adage to live by.  We implemented this adage in honors chemistry today by practicing our unit conversions and calculations of measurements using the rules of significant figures.  Hopefully this practice helps in preparing for the first unit test.  I think everyone had fun with the paper toss activity today.  I know I enjoyed the smiles on the faces as the paper was flying around the room to Green Day's "Time of Your Life".  The best part of the activity is when we read each other's questions and answered them.  Don't forget the study hints given in class today: study with a buddy, study often for smaller segments of time, cramming does not work, write out answers to the stated objectives, come after school for any needed help, post questions to the blog ( I do answer them). Unit 1 test is Thursday and the unit 1 portfolio is also due.  Preparation is the key to success! Let's prepare for this chapter test.
Until next time,
Mrs. E
