We will further elaborate and reinforce the types of mixtures through class notes as well as a study guide to be completed and turned in as a formative assessment. In the remaining time, students are to read section 14.2 on solution concentration as we will continue with our quantative analysis of solutions through percent by mass, percent by volume, molarity and molality.
Chapter 14, Section 1: Types of Mixtures
We will discuss the various types of mixtures and their properties, compare and contrast soluble and insoluble substances as well as miscible and immiscible liquids, and elaborate upon Brownian motion of particles.

Section 15.2: Evidence of Evolution
We will complete our Think Aloud strategy and elaborate upon the evidence of evolution through making several inferences about the history of life that are supported by evidence from rocks and past life, recognize that biogeography gives us that evidence about species evolution through their adaptation to similar and different environments. Furthermore, we will examine body evidence and biological molecules of organisms and the development of these organisms to recognize their common ancestry. Moreover, we will briefly elaborate upon the ongoing development of the evolutionary theory.

Monday the 6th of May 2013 Test, Section 15.1: History of Evolutionary Thought
Students will be evaluated upon the history of evolutionary thought that was put forth by several scientists that include Georges Cuvier, Charles Lyell, Jean Baptiste Lamarck, Thomas Malthus, Alfred Russel Wallace, and One Charles Darwin!

Review Section 15.1: History of Evolutionary Thought
We will answer and correct our study guide on Section 15.1, History of Evolutionary Thought, and we will answer the remaining assigned homework questions #’s 5, 7, and 8 on page 301. In the remaining time, we will start our round two practice of Think Aloud strategy that will center on Section 15.2, Evidence of Evolution.

Monday, Test Retake: Limiting Reactant and Percentage Yield!
Students will be re-evaluated upon their ability skills to determine the limiting reactant in a chemical equation and proceed to figure out the efficiencyof the reaction by determining its percentage yield that’s based upon the reaction’s actual yield compared to its theoretical yield multiplied by one hundred to obtain the reaction’s efficiency.

Test Correction: Limiting Reactant and Percent Yield!
We will solve the test on the Promethean board and discuss the various answers as to why they are the answers since we will be “dancing the same dance” come Monday because we have failed to accomplish our objective for this topic!

THURSDAY, MAY 2, 2013, TEST: LIMITING REACTANT AND PERCENTAGE YIELD
Students will be evaluated upon their ability skills to determine the limiting reactant in a chemical equation and proceed to figure out the efficiencyof the reaction by determining its percentage yield that’s based upon the reaction’s actual yield compared to its theoretical yield multiplied by one hundred to obtain the reaction’s efficiency.

Section 15.1: History of Evolutionary Thoughts
Students will attempt the Think-Aloud strategy as they will share their reading comprehension of the works of several scientists with a pair of their classmates by channeling their personal dimensions through the social dimensions in order to reach our cognitive dimensions and begin to build upon our knowledge of the subject matter of the theory of evolution.
