I’ll try to add some images of the icons later.  There are a couple more I won’t add until I have the icons for them or you won’t be able to find them.

Elements Test – Good to use to study for your element quiz next week.  Remember, though, you can’t pick which elements you study.

The Periodic Table of Videos

This one has pictures of the element for all but a few.  It’s typically listed as the “Most Beautiful Periodic Table.”

Unknowns lab again today.  We’re finishing up tomorrow.  We’ll come in, run flame tests, then be ready to get our sample to identify.

Because this is taking a while, we won’t have a quiz.  Instead, the questions over chemical and physical changes will be added to the next test which will be after compounds, elements, mixtures and conservation of mass.  Sound like fun?  Just wait.

On a different note, due to the increase in students who are not turning in homework, after this 6 weeks, my “freebie” will be gone.  Way too many people not turning in homework as they should.
