 Today we did our OPTICS test.  Well done everyone!  We wrapped up optics.  

Make sure you have turned in your optical dictionary!

Next we wrapped up the optics unit by building our own optical instruments.  Fun times were had by all.  

Finally we watched some videos about rainbows.  The first one is university level, but so interesting!!









Anatomy and Physiology 12

Friday:  Quiz on the heart and path of blood flow through the heart.  

Today we did a lab on pulse and blood pressure.   Get ready to pump it up!   Next we took notes on  Systemic and Pulmonary circulation and pulse and blood pressure.  These notes are found HERE and power point HERE.  

Next we did a blood vessels worksheet.  This is found below.  Check chapter 12 for names of major blood vessels.

Today we wrote our test on DIGESTION!!   Next we started the circulatory unit.  Read chapter 12.3 and colour the HEARTS. 💖💕💔💓💗💘 The heart colouring sheets are found HERE and HERE

Science 8

Today we practice for our optics test (chapters 4, 5 and 6) coming up on Wednesday.  

First we did THIS refraction review.  HERE is the key.  Next we worked on our OPTICAL dictionary assignment.  This is found HERE.  

Finally we watched a video to look at a weird experiment that was done to show how our brain "flips" the image we see.

QUEST ON THE OPTICS UNIT:  CHAPTERS 4, 5 AND 6 ON WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 19TH.   

Today we started with a review of parts and function of the eyeball.  This worksheet is found HERE.  Next we did the eyeball dissection!  Those cow eyes were beefy! (get it, beefy:) When completed we answered all the questions at the end of the lab on page 212-213.  These questions are the:  Analyze questions and Conclude and Apply at the bottom of page 213.  Finish these in full sentences and turn them in.  

Next we got a visual dictionary assignment found HERE.  This is due on Wednesday, November 19th and will help you review for the quest.
