Yesterday we started a new unit, on matter and measurement. For the most part I feel as if I knew a big chunk of this information before starting this, because most of the material so far seems familiar. Some new thing are the heating and cooling curve, more distinct classification of matter (heterogeneous mixture, homogeneous mixture, etc.), and significant figures.

Significant figures seem confusing to me, and some of the law seem a little pointless. Found a webpage that puts all of the rules and examples in a simple way.
We got a new project that seems relevant to what we are learning, taking measurements of ingredients of meals and putting them into metric. I like how I can easily see the relationship between the project and the unit it was tied to, which I had trouble with in earlier projects.
This was very helpful and I liked your picture. One thing I would have liked is more of an explanation on what some of the different things you talked about were.
