Science 10:  We used an answer key to go over pg 369 # 1-5 from Monday, then we completed the Astronomy Practice Test.   This is due on Thursday, and the Astronomy Test is on Friday.

Science 9:  We reviewed the Carbon cycle and spoke about how Carbon enters and leaves the atmosphere.  Samples of a number of local tree species were observed and everyone made their own field guide to help with Tree ID.  We looked at conifers (spruce, fir, cedar, yew, and pine) and deciduous (maple, birch, trembling aspen, mountain ash).  The remaining time was spent on finishing the "Carbon stored in Tree Biomass" lab as well as the Population WS. 

Chemistry 11:  We added some brief notes to our graphs from Lab 11A.  It is important that chemists know the trends in atomic radius and ionization energy when we go horizontally or vertically on the periodic table.  We read pages 165 - 176, then we completed Unit 8 # 57 - 67, and this will be due on Thursday,

Science 8:  We read an article on Wegener's Theory of Continental Drift, then we did a USGS cut and paste activity to map out Pangaea.  This map is due on Wednesday.
