New online resource!

There is a new online resource you can access!  It's called Skills Tutor.  Every student in my class has an account.  You may login to practice your recall of knowledge and maybe even learn something new!  Here is how you get there...

1. Open a new webpage and visit www.myskillstutor.com
2. Type in your lunch number for the username and password
3.  Type in richards04 for the site ID

This may be incorporated for some of your study time on your weekly study chart!

We made our own version of this in class today using only cornstarch and water.  When mixed, you get a substance very similar to Earth's mantle.  If you make this at home, make sure NOT to pour it down the drain and play outside to minimize any mess :)
