 * Thursday, April 19, 2012:** We wrote the Unit 2 Test! Tomorrow, we begin climate change.


 * Wednesday, April 18, 2012:** The Unit 2 Test is tomorrow! Good luck everyone! I will be available for extra help at 9 AM as usual!


 * Tuesday, April 17, 2012:** Presentations for the HHPS assignment assigned last week. We also reviewed synthesis, decomposition and combustion reactions. Be working on your review package!


 * Friday, April 13, 2012:** Review booklet for the upcoming test (April 19th!): [[file:SNC2D Unit 2 Review Booklet [10 Pages].pdf]]. If you can't do some of these questions, you are not ready for the test! In Word format: [[file:Unit 2 Review Booklet.doc]]. Students who hand in this review booklet completed (and mostly correct!) on test day will be awarded 2 extra marks in the "Knowledge" section of the test.


 * Thursday, April 12, 2012:** Introduction to acids and bases. Then, we worked on the assignment which is due tomorrow! (See April 10). The Unit Test will be on Thursday, April 19th.

Assignment, due Friday, April 13 (Window of Opportunity: Tuesday, April 17):
 * Wednesday, April 11, 2012:** We worked on the HHPS/WHMIS assignment that was assigned yesterday. We chose the order for CCT presentations, which will occur on May 15 and 16.

 * Thursday, April 5, 2012:** Synthesis, Decomposition and Combustion Reactions.


 * Wednesday, April 4, 2012:** I was away at a bowling tournament. I left an assignment about the BP Oil Spill. I am told it did not work ideally, and we will patch it up tomorrow. No homework.


 * Tuesday, April 3, 2012:** Double Displacement Reactions Continued. Homework: Finish yesterday's worksheet.


 * Monday, April 2, 2012:** Double Displacement Reactions. Homework: 12 of the questions from today's worksheet: [[file:April 3 12 - Double Displacement Reaction Worksheet.pdf]]


 * Friday, March 30, 2012:** Quiz about balancing chemical equations and single displacement reactions (did not count towards students' final marks). Blank copy: [[file:SNC2D Quiz March 30 2012 Balancing and Single Displacement.pdf]]. Students were given a periodic table and list of polyatomic ions: [[file:SNC2D List of Ions.pdf]]


 * Thursday, March 29, 2012:** Period 2: Literacy Test. Period 3: Single Displacement Reaction Review + Chemistry Clips from "Breaking Bad"

Students should be able to:
 * Wednesday, March 28, 2012:** Today we continued talking about single displacement reactions. Quiz Friday!
 * Balance chemical equations
 * Determine **if** a single displacement reaction will take place (“Will there be a reaction? Yes or No”)
 * Predict the products of single displacement reactions
 * Balance single displacement reactions after predicting the products of them.
