Level 3-I can prove that density is a characteristic of a substance. Level4-I can determine the identity of a solid and liquid substance by calculating its density. Level4-I can use density to explain the layers of the earth or atmosphere.

I can identify the parts of a mixture and separate it based on its properties. Level 1-I can differentiate between heterogenous and homogenous mixtures Level 2- I can classify matter into the 4 classes of matter. Level 2- I can differentiate between solvent and solute in an actual solution. Level 3- I can compare and contrast homogenous mixtures, heterogenous mixtures, and solutions. <span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Level 3- I can explain why substances behave the way they do when mixed. <span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Level 4-I can apply concepts of solubility and concentration to explain how nutrients are cycled through our ecosystems. <span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Level 4- I can critique actual oil spill techniques citing evidence from multiple sources. || <span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">*The half sheets you complete in class will give both of us feedback as to whether or not you got it! need practice! or almost got it!

<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Mass vs. Weight: Although the terms mass and weight are used almost interchangeably, there is a difference between them. Mass is a measure of the quantity of matter, which is constant all over the universe. Weight is proportional to mass but depends on location in the universe. Weight is the force exerted on a body by gravitational attraction (usually by the earth). Elmhurst

<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">PART 1-RESEARCH QUESTIONS: COMPLETER THE FOLLOWING QUESTIONS USING LINKS #27-34 <span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Now, thinking of how to clean up after an oil spill. There are 2 aspects to this. The oil must be removed AND exposed animals must be cleaned. I have assembled a variety of readings that will give you background on what has been done for the BP oil spill, the Exxon Valdez spill and in the case of oil exposure in birds.

<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Answer the questions below IN COMPLETE SENTENCES. Restate the question in your journal.

<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">1.) Summarize the general procedure for cleaning birds after oil spills.

<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">2) Name four animals that are affected by oil spills, and how they are affected.

<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">3) Using the articles and context, what role do each of these play in cleaning up an oil spill:


 * <span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Booms


 * <span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Skimmers

<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">4) What other materials aid in cleaning up an oil spill. List at least 5 and tell what they do.

<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">PART B-Using the Design Cycle <span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">You will use the design cycle to design a procedure to clean up an oil spill. <span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">-You will receive an oil spill with feathers in it. You will receive 4 feathers. Your first task will be to clean them.The second will be to remove the oil. You will bring in materials. In some cases, I can supply some materials. Knowing how birds are cleaned up, what cleaners would you like to try? You should pick 3 different cleaners. (One you should clean with only water.) Write a materials list and your procedure in your journal. <span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">You can try to clean the oil in various ways. What ways would you like to try? You may try numerous ways. Base your decisions on some of the methods in existence, but you are free to think outside of the box. Write a materials list and procedure below.
