What you have been waiting for!!!

Sorry that it is a little later. But for those that are going the extra mile: the whole test awaits










The Student journals (Classifying rock and changing land are Due tomorrow. I will grade them while you are completed your test. If you did not turn in your lab write up (project, journals and homework) it is in your best interest to turn them in tomorrow.










Hello

Ok.... Have not posting much recently, However I did say I would post sneak peeks of the test for tomorrow.

What is going to be covered:

Classifying rock:

  • How are each type of rock formed
  • What are the characteristics of each rock (igneous, sedimentary, metamorphic) 
  • What is the rock cycle
Changing land: 
  • Categorize Constructive and destructive forces
  • What are the agents (cause) of change
  • What is each stage of changing the earth surface
  • define the stages
  • How can the changes affect the ecoregion 


Come back at around 7:30 for a detailed idea.

The Student journals (Classifying rock and changing land are Due tomorrow. I will grade them while you are completed your test. If you did not turn in your lab write up (project, journals and homework) it is in your best interest to turn them in tomorrow.
