Summary: This week in class we learned about minerals. The mineral I learned about was Magnetite which is a very magnetic mineral. Some of its properties are metallic luster hardness is 5.5 and its color is black. Some things you can make with Magnetite are magnets and compasses. FUN FACT: Magnetite was used to make some of the first magnetic compasses.

SP: Analyzing and interpreting data
We analyzed our data by researching specific areas of our mineral like (luster density cleavage etc.) We interpreted our data by putting our research into a little magazine on jilster.com and then we published it.
