Exam Question

There will be a question on the exam that asks you to choose 3 of the "quality of life" measures discussed in Activity 6.1. You will be asked to explain why and how they indicate the level of development (i.e. more developed or less developed) in a country. Use the blog to caucus with your fellow 8th graders by posting "comments".

#11 on the Test

A few students came up to me on Friday asking about #11 on the test. They said that you could not answer it with the information given. I looked at it and gave it back saying you could. I should correct myself. Using the information from the lab, which was the assumption I was working from, you could, but as is written, you cannot answer the question. Having said that, the question is based on the the parameters from the book: 75mL of hot water is poured into the calorimeter and the various substances are placed in between the inner and outer wall of the calorimeter. Post your questions to this blog if you have any further ones. Ms. Bonebrake and I will be out on Thursday and Friday for a conference on sustainability.

Welcome Class of 2012

This weblog was set up last year to help 8th grade science students prepare for tests/exams and to allow you a way to easily answer each others questions. In a few weeks, we will begin work on the class wiki which will serve as your study guide for the T2 science exam, which is on February 21st.
