Expectations for Unit Two: Mixtures and Compounds
Proof Pass
You must complete two out of the three in order to take the Unit Two Proof. If your proof
passes are finished in class on the day of the review (the class period before the test),
then I can look them over and give suggestions for study:
1. Vocabulary
2. Guided Notes
3. Test Prep
Unit Proof
1. Quizzes. There will be at least two quizzes during this unit on Matter and Its Properties.
The quizzes will not be a surprise; you will be reminded to study for them the class
period before. (15 points total)
2. Bell Ringers. Nearly every day there will be a bell ringer. You will turn bell ringers in at
least three times during each unit, though you may be called on to hand them in
more than once, particularly if you are struggling to complete them or having trouble
with course content. (15 points) Bell ringers will be kept on notebook paper, though
sometimes there will be a separate handout.
3. Labs. There are several labs scheduled throughout this unit. You will be asked to turn in
two of them for credit. They are worth 10 points each. (20 points)
4. Unit Test. The unit test will cover all the learning targets for Unit One. In order to take the
test in class, on time, you must turn in 2 of the three proof passes. Scheduled test
date: ___________________ (50 points)
Important Dates
Graded proofs will be returned by ____________________.
Retakes will be available until __________________.
Retakes are only given if all THREE proof pass assignments are complete, as well as any
additional work your teacher thinks is necessary. Plan to pass the first time!
Included in this packet:
1. Vocabulary List with directions for completion
2. Guided Notes with directions for completion

Unit Two: Mixtures and Compounds
Vocabulary Proof Pass
The vocabulary list should be complete on the day of the test; this is one of your “proof passes”
for unit two. Demonstrating knowledge on this list will help you prepare you for the final proof for
the unit.
Definitions can be found a variety of ways. You can use the class blog to access a semester
glossary (blogs.bethel.k12.or.us/npetersen/). This is done by going to the blog, clicking on the
red bar where it says “glossary” then scrolling down to the link for Semester 2. You can pay
attention in class and add definitions as we work on them during our lessons. You can pull
definitions from the class reading selections as well.
You have a lot of choices when it comes to completing the vocabulary proof pass. You may:
1. Put each word on a note card, with a word on one side and a definition on the back.
Each definition should also come with an example. If you don’t have note cards, feel
free to pick up flashcard templates from me. You can cut them up and use them just
like note cards.
2. Make a more traditional vocabulary list on notebook paper. Make sure that you include
both definitions and examples.
3. Generate electronic flashcards. There are many great websites for this. Here are a
couple of choices: http://www.kitzkikz.com/flashcards/ and http://quizlet.com/createset . These websites let you either print cards (which can be brought on the day of
the unit proof) or e-mail a finished set to someone. You can also show them to me on
your phone the day of the proof. There are also a lot of great flashcard apps—some
of them are free! Just show me the work you have done in the app.
4. Pick up a vocabulary graphic organizer from me. There are always lots of copies at the
front of the room.
5. Use some other kind of system that works for you—just run it by me ahead of time.
Here are your words for Unit One. Good luck!

Unit Two: Mixtures and Compounds
Guided Notes Proof Pass
If you choose the guided notes, they should be complete on the day of the test; this is one of
your “proof passes” for Unit Two. Demonstrating knowledge on these guided notes will prepare
you for the final unit proof, particularly the short answer questions.
Each part of the guided notes shows which learning targets are related to that question.
The guide can be filled out in a variety of ways. You can work on it during class, paying careful
attention to the learning targets we work on and matching them to this study guide. You can use
homework practice and class practice for help. You can access resources available through the
class blog (blogs.bethel.k12.or.us/npetersen/). However you choose to work on the guided
notes, you should work on them throughout the unit.

Unit Two: Mixtures and Compounds
Test Prep Proof Pass
This test prep should be complete on the day of the test; this is one of your “proof passes” for
unit two. Demonstrating knowledge on the test prep will prepare you for the final unit proof.
Each part of the test prep shows which learning targets are related to that section. The purpose
of the study guide is to give you an idea about the types of questions that will be on the proof.
Test prep can be completed in a variety of ways. You can work on it during class, paying careful
attention to the learning targets we work on in class and matching them to the questions here.
You can access resources available through the class blog (blogs.bethel.k12.or.us/npetersen/).
However you choose to work on the test, you work on it throughout the unit.
