  Week 9 and 10 Nov. 6 - 8 (short week)and Nov. 13 - 17
Goals:
1. Know the density of water: 1g/ml.
2. Know what mass, volume and density are and how to measure them.
3. Know that the density of a pure substance is constant (at a given temperature and pressure).
4. Know that the solid phase is almost always more dense than the liquid phase, but that water is an exception.
5. Know that fresh water is a precious and effectively limited resource.

Activities:
Monday: Discussion about goals, dreams and GPA. If time, notes on water, mass and volume.
Block: Determine the density of water. Link to handout Write conclusion as homework.
Monday: Determine the density of ice.
Block day: Surface Tension and water polarity activities. Review sheet . (This copy is missing some important pictures that are hand drawn on the in-class version.) Link to homework handout.
Thursday:Word sort about vocabulary. Start Density Challenge
Friday: Finish density Challenge. Quiz

This weeks notebook should have.
1. Density of a pure substance part 1.
2. Graph
3. Density of ice worksheet
4. Density review sheet
