1. Do now: 1. What does WD40 and your pencil have in common
Do now: 1.What does WD40 and your pencil have in common? Hint 1: Use your ESRT Hint 2: WD40 is a lubricant 2. take out your mineral HW.

2. L.O: SWBAT use ESRT page 16: properties of common minerals (S3a, S4a,S5c, S5f, S6a, S7b, S8a)

3. *****Minerals are: Naturally occurring, inorganic solid substances.

4. ***Minerals are identified through their physical properties.
L.O:SWBAT describe and identify minerals through their
physical characteristics.

5. *Minerals get their physical properties from the crystalline arrangement of their atoms.
L.O:SWBAT describe and identify minerals through their
physical characteristics.

6. ***crystalline arrangement:
how the atoms are arranged inside of a mineral!!!!
L.O:SWBAT describe and identify minerals through their
physical characteristics.

7. The crystalline arrangement could make two things with the exact same element have different properties!
graphite
diamond

8. A mineral’s crystalline structure is responsible for a minerals properties:
The mineral’s luster (“shinyness”)
The mineral’s shape
The mineral’s hardness
a mineral’s cleavage (breaks into pieces)

9. Open to the last page of ESRT page 16
This page has all the properties of common minerals.
Open to the last page of ESRT page 16
L.O:SWBAT describe and identify minerals through their
physical characteristics.

10. You are now responsible for it!
L.O:SWBAT describe and identify minerals through their
physical characteristics.
