This week we have been doing a web quest on waves. The end result of this web quest is for students to create their own power point presentations. Today was the last day of this activity. The wave lab from last week will be handed in tomorrow.

Thursday Class

Today in class we concluded the experimental side of our waves lab. Students finished designing procedures that showed:
1. Waves transfer energy.
2. Waves move outward from the source of energy.
3. The larger the amplitude, the larger the energy.

Tomorrow we will write our lab reports.

Tuesday Class

Today in science class we started a small unit on waves. We are doing a lab that demonstrates how waves transfer energy. In doing this, students are also reviewing the scientific method. Enjoy the day off tomorrow!

Tuesday Class

Today in science class we once again had two separate labs going. In Mr. Wandel's room we had a pH lab. In Mr. Malefyt's room we had a paper chromatography lab being done. Yesterday students did one and today they did the other.

There will be a test this Friday. A review sheet will be handed out. We will spend time reviewing both on Wednesday and Thursday.
