Updates and Homework Links 9/12

Good morning!

A little confusion last week while I was gone.  Sorry guys!  We are truly working in Chapter 3, not Chapter 8.  Some of the concepts from chapter 3 (mixtures) are revisited in chapter 8, and more detail is given there.  But I really did want to start with just reviewing chapter 3, which students should have covered last year in 6th grade.  I do apologize for the confusion!!

Okay, for part of this week's homework, kids can give the self-checking quizzes a shot, and explore some of the other resources available on the textbook's website.  Here are the links (hint - if you want to open the links in a new window, so you don't lose this page, right click over the link and choose "open in new tab"):

Chapter 3, Section 1 self-check quiz
Chapter 3, Section 2 self-check quiz
Chapter 3, Section 3 self-check quiz

And here's a short Brain Pop about how the atomic theory has changed over time.
