Monday and Tuesday - Finish the chart before next class.

If you missed class on either Monday or Tuesday, you need to prepare a chart that lists certain properties of terrestrial and gas giant planets. Use Unit 3 lessons 4 and 5 for most of the information.
If you were present, you know you must have this chart complete as you walk into class. The next step is a graphing activity. You should have your own graph paper for this.
