Life Sciences 11

Today I collected any signed safety sheets.  These are due on Monday, found HERE if you need a copy.  Next we reviewed the Scientific Method with a POWER POINT and note sheet to go with it.  

We will have a short quiz on Tuesday on the scientific method.  Make sure you can:  write a hypothesis, identify the dependent and independent variables in an experiment and explain how to test a hypothesis using a control group and an experimental group.  

We practiced the scientific method by completing the worksheet found HERE in groups.

Life Sciences 11

Welcome back to school everyone!  We are so glad to see you all back in person.   Stay tuned for how the Biology 11 (or now know as Life Sciences 11) course will look.  Rest assured that I will stay on top of the electronic files so that if you have to stay home for any reason, there will material for you.  

The course outline is found HERE.  Please note that to avoid shared items you need your own:  calculator, clear plastic ruler and pencil crayons (along with pens, pencil, paper and binder).

Science 10

Work for the week of June 1-5

This week we will be working on review of our Chemistry and Physics Units as well as lab work.  If you are here for the lab, we will be completing lab 2-H on page 180-182.   If you are not coming, that's ok!   Your assignment #1 is:  Conclude and Communicate #3 and #4 on page 182.   You don't need to have completed the lab to do this. 

Assignment #2.   Review of the Energy Unit found HERE.  

Assignment #3.   Build your own Rube Goldberg Machine.  Assignment found HERE.  Please send a short video with you explaining the energy transformations or write up separately.
