Science 9:  We finished Lab 8.1 by completing a fill-in-the-blank Conclusion.  Note the style of writing:  mini essay style, written in third person, the purpose is addressed, etc.  We wrote brief notes on Ionic Compounds, then we read pages 140 - 143.  On this hand-out we completed # 3-8, 10, 11, and 14, which is due next day.  Page 133 # 1-9 is not yet due.   Click here to see the Science 9 Assignment Log.

Science 8:  We completed lab 7-4 by finishing procedure #7-10 (drawing a temp vs time graph) and completing the "What did I Find Out" Questions # 1-4 in sentences.  We also practiced measuring volume and mass.   Due Monday is Lab 7-4 (all procedure steps and Questions # 1-4)  Click here to see the Science 8 Assignment Log.  

 Science 9:  We went through the answer to page 125 and 127 then completed a Density Practice Quiz.   Well do a quiz like this on Monday.  We took brief notes on Electron Arrangement, then read pages 130 - 132.  After Lab 8.1 was completed, we did page 133 # 1-9 in point form (not due Monday).  We finished by going through the answers to Lab 8.1.  Click here to see the Science 9 Assignment Log.

 Science 9:  Today we learned how to draw Bohr Models for all the elements from #1 to #20.  We read pages 124-127 and we completed #1-2 on page 125 and # 1-2 on page 127.  All these are due on Friday.  We also completed the procedure for Lab 8.1, but this lab is due on Friday.   Click here to see the Science 9 Assignment Log.

Science 8:  We looked over the Mass Mini-Lab first, then we reviewed measurement by completing this review WS.  We then reviewed changes of state and completed the procedure for Lab 7-4.  Only the Measurement WS is due next class.  The Lab is not due Friday.   Lets do a quiz on Friday on changes of state.  Click here to see the Science 8 Assignment Log.

Science 9:  Today we did the Density Lab today.  I collected page 115 # 1-7.  Click here to see the Science 9 Assignment Log.

Science 8:  We did the mini lab on Mass today after we went through the Temperature WS.  I collected the WS.  Click here to see the Science 8 Assignment Log.  

Science 8:  We began by going through page 249 # 1-5, then we heated some materials to observe their thermal expansion.    A bimetallic strip bends when heated, and liquids expand when heated, and these behaviors are what makes a thermometer work.  We measured the air temperature as well as the temperature of tap water.  After reading pages 250 and 251 we completed the Temperature WS.  I checked all of your supplies today:  binder, calculator, ruler, paper, pens/pencils, textbook.  Click here to see the Science 8 Assignment Log.  

Science 9:  We started by going through page 95 # 1-3, then we viewed some samples of families on the Periodic Table.  We read pages 110 - 114, and filled in a placemat with brief notes.  We completed page 115 # 1-7, and at the very end we reviewed atomic structure from Grade 8.   I checked all of your supplies today:  binder, calculator, ruler, paper, pens/pencils, textbook.  Click here to see the Science 9 Assignment Log.

Science 9:  We began by going over the Volume WS and reviewing key ideas about safety and elements.  After measuring a specific volume of water (it had to be a perfect square)  in a graduated cylinder, we wrote brief note on the Chemistry.  We read pages 102 to 109 and completed page 95 # 1-3 and page 115 # 4-7, both are due Monday.  Also on Monday, I would like to check your supplies (pencils/pens, calculator,  ruler, binder, paper, graph paper (20 sheets), & textbook).

Science 8:  We began by going over the Volume WS and reviewing key ideas about safety and measurement.  After measuring a specific volume of water (it had to be a multiple of 9)  in a graduated cylinder, we wrote brief note on the Chemistry.  We read pages 252 - 253 and completed page 253 # 1-4 and page 249 # 1-4; both are due Monday.  Also on Monday, I would like to check your supplies (pencils/pens, calculator,  ruler, binder, paper, & textbook).

 Science 9:  First we reviewed safety procedures and equipment, then we drew a map of the classroom, hallway, and exit route for a fire drill.  We labelled all the safety equipment, as well as the nearest firt extinguisher and firepull outside the room.  We then observed some elements and compounds and recorded their properties.  We learned how to measure volume to the nearest one-tenth of the smallest division and completed the Volume WS.  In the last few minutes we read pages 88-93 but did not complete page 95 # 1-3 in point form.  Also, on Monday I would like to check your supplies: calculator, pens/pencils, calculator, ruler, paper, 20 sheet of graph paper, textbook.
