Forecast for the following days

It is progress report time already? Well, almost.
In celebration of Freedom week we are studying the Constitution and other famous documents. This Friday we are going to recite the 2nd sentence of the Declaration of Independence. Information on the DOI can be found here. It is for a grade and will be assessed like the following.
Choice 1= recite verbally
Choice 2= write out on a blank paper
Choice 3= Fill in the Blank

Choice 1 will be the easiest while choice 3 will be a little more difficult.


Science were are starting to get into the States of Matter. We will have to know what we have learned up till now in order to understand where we are going. For instance,
1. Matter is anything that takes up space and has mass.
2. Mass- the amount of "stuff" in an object. Do NOT get this confused with weight. Remember, you can weight differently on the moon but still have the same mass.
3. Physical properties- anything that can be observed with your 5 senses or measured with a tool.
4. density- the amount of "stuff" in a given space.
5. Volume-the measurement of the space an object takes up

Also, know how to measure mass, volume, density. With what tools do you use to do these?

More to come later....
