Test Tomorrow

Tomorrow there will be a test about our current unit of geology, paleontology, and studying the earth's history. This is Ch. 15 in the textbook (http://my.hrw.com username: student9490 password: j9m7j) and p. 140-150 in students' notebooks.

As part of our review, students worked on "Chapter Review" sheets which we went over the last 20 minutes of class. However, we did not get a chance to go over the last 5 questions and will discuss them before the test tomorrow. We will also be able to take about 15 minutes for questions and clarifications about the material.

In addition, students received a vocabulary skills sheet to help them prepare for the test. I am not requiring this to be completed, but the answers will be posted on my bulletin board for students to check when they come into class.

Tuesday, April 5 homework.

Tonight's homework is a concept map about Geologic Time. Although the guided reading has much of the information, students may find it useful to look at the on-line book. There is a table where information is much better organized.
