Today we begun work on the Gummy Bear Lab.  We have our gummy bears being subjected to a variety of solutions and we recorded the initial data of mass and length. 

Second block we wrote out a good copy of the lab on the lab tops.  

Textbook tours were turned in as well.

Today we wrote our safety quiz.   Next we added to our power point notes on Scientific Method.   Here is a link to the power point if you want to review.

Next we split into lab groups and begin work on the Gummy Bear lab.  What type of liquid will increase a Gummy Bear's size?

Today we filled out a Student Survey for Ms. Wood to get to know you and your learning style better.  Next we did some more work on safety by watching a short video showing the WHMIS symbols and then we did a cutting and pasting activity to help remember the symbols.

Next we started a tour around the text book.  This assignment will be due on Wednesday.  Make sure you bring it back to class next day.

Finally I did a little demo using hydrogen peroxide..  and we had a class science challenge.
