NEXT THURSDAY 12/15 GROUP WHITE SHEET TEST ON ALL 8 SECTIONS
MONDAY 12/19 INDIVIDUAL WHITE SHEET TEST ON ALL 8 SECTIONS

HONORS:  HOT ZONE- HAVE PART 2 READ BY FRIDAY- THIS TIME,  I WANT YOU TO LOOK UP ANY TERMS YOU ARE UNSURE OF AND DEFINE THEM- AT LEAST 30- YOU WILL HAND THEM IN ON FRIDAY AND THEN HAVE A WRITING PROMPT THAT ADDRESSES THE SECTION YOU READ.


IF YOU READ THE BOOK, YOU WILL BE FINE- I THINK THIS MAY BE A BETTER WAY TO ASSESS WHAT YOU HAVE LEARNED.


AGAIN- WHEN YOU ARE READING, FOCUS ON THE SCIENCE ASPECTS AS FAR AS WHAT I MAY ASK YOU TO WRITE ABOUT, HOWEVER,  YOU SHOULD DEFINE  ANY TERMS THAT YOU JUST AREN'T SURE OF LIKE "PRIMITIVE", "OPTIMUM", "ADJACENT" OR "ANCIENT"
