9/25/13

Tonight's homework is to read Section 6.1 "Earth is a Peculiar Planet" on p. 106 through 110 in Botkin & Keller. Take notes on the reading and answer the two questions below.

Ideas for Notetaking Strategies
- Summarize and record big ideas of sections, paragraphs, etc.
- Define new/relevant terms and summarize
- Use in-text headings to organize notes

Reading Questions
1. How is Earth a unique planet?
2. Earth's atmosphere did not always contain oxygen like it does today. Describe the story of oxygen, including: how it came to be more prevalent in the atmosphere, the consequences of increased oxygen, and how we know about the oxygen content of earlier Earth's atmosphere.
