Quiz today... and Graphing notes, HMWK for Friday

Today's quiz went pretty well for most.  Grades will be entered tonight and you will get your quiz back tomorrow.
We did hand-grade the quiz so you could get immediate feedback.

Notes on graphing (we'll finish tomorrow)

HMWK due Friday:  p. 879#1-10

Exam Tuesday:  Unit 1: Measurement and Density!


Unit 1 Assessment categories:  (I expect you to perform well in all of the following areas)
1. Why is SI important/valuable?  What are drawbacks of SI?   (vs other measurements)
Use SI prefixes to represent quantities and convert between measurements:
2. Express (some measurement)  in:   a.  (some SI unit)                     b. (different prefix, same unit)    c. “  “
3. Determine the density of the object provided to you.  Relate this item’s density/ characteristics relative to others.
4. Use tools to measure real items accurately and precisely, using appropriate SI units.
5. Design or critique an experiment using your understanding of science and experimentation.
6. Use density values to determine the volume or mass when one is unknown.  Ex. Find mass of 1 liter of water.
7. Represent results from an experiment visually with an appropriate, correct, complete graph.

8. Use a graph to interpret data, explain observations, and predict other events.
