y9 challenges for the week 5-12 dec

Keep in mind the end of term test is upon us - we will have the test on the 13th of December. For this reason, most of the challenges for this week will be related to revising for the test :)

1. Make sure you know the symbols for the most commonly used elements. You can use use the Memrise for it as well.

2. Revise, revise, revise - make your own revision materials (spider diagrams, presentations, posters etc.) 

3. This Friday is the deadline for the dog breeds project. You need to prepare a poster/presentation about a dog breed of your choice - include as many details as possible about the characteristics the dogs were bred for and try to relate it to the genetic aspects
