Mole Day Contest Announcement
On October 23rd Chemistry students around the world will be celebrating International Mole Day. All
students and staff members are invited to participate by answering the question "What is a mole?" (and
we're not talking about the furry little animal or a pigmented spot on the skin!). Everyone who answers
the question correctly will get a Smarties and be entered in the grand prize drawing for a McDonalds gift
certificate! Bring your answer to Mrs. Kraus's room on Tuesday.
