a) What types of pollution do landfills have the potential to cause?
b) How are landfills constructed so that they do not cause pollution? 1) Go to Juno and look at your Chapter 15 progress check results and look at all of the short answer questions at the end.
2) Google "2007 AP Environmental Science FRQ Scoring Guide." Pull up the document and look at question #3 answers. 3) Look at what you wrote for answers and look at what the requirements were for answers. In the answer to this journal, write down SPECIFICALLY what you needed to add to EACH question in order to get all of the points. You often hear the phrase "Reduce, Reuse, and Recycle" when talking about how we can reduce the amount of trash we generate. Why isn't "Reduce, Reuse, Recycle" enough to combat the issues around solid waste?
When you're done answering the journal, turn in your particulate lab to the bin and get out your Chapter 16 reading. 1) How much solid waste do you estimate you generate in a day? A week? A month? A year?
2) What are the main issues surrounding solid waste and the environment? When you are finished, go to the Solid Waste page under the Pollution tab. Check your answers to the reading questions. Then find your particulate lab peeps and go back and check your data and work on the lab questions. You will need to use the stereomicroscopes to view your particulates - they are in the long cabinets at each lab station. You have 20 minutes to work on the lab questions; they will be due on Monday. Explain what all of the following are:
a) bag house filters b) electrostatic precipitators c) scrubbers d) sulfur allowances Get out your homework (the ozone practice sheets).
a) What's the difference between stratospheric ozone depletion and ground-level (tropospheric) ozone formation? b) How does ground-level ozone form? c) What is causing stratospheric ozone depletion? d) Are ground-level ozone and stratospheric ozone connected to global warming? Why or why not? When you're finished, turn in your homework to the box and then get in your reciprocal teaching groups. You will be the same role as you were yesterday. Click on the "Air Pollution" page. Check your answers to your homework. In the answer to this journal, write down:
a) Two things you never knew before b) Two questions you have about air pollution Go to Juno and check the results of your Energy Unit test as well as the Chapter 14 Progress Check from Friday. What last minute-questions do you have about Chapter 14?
