Science 8:  We reviewed the respiratory system, then we did a practice quiz on respiratory system anatomy.  Everyone wrote down the Vital Capacity and height data from Monday, and we made our first graph to see if Mr. Gale's hypothesis is supported by our data or not.  "Vital Capacity is related to height - taller people have more lung volume".  Click here to see the assignment log.

Chemistry 12:  We wrote brief notes on Dynamic Equilibrium after looking at a reversible reaction.  We began Unit 2 # 1-13 while the Rates of Reaction Practice Test was being marked.  Next day we will do the Rates of Reaction Test.  Click here to see the key.  You can use your databooklet with its helpful hints for this first unit test - for subsequent ones you will use a fresh data booklet for tests.   Do not spend time on the Unit 2 problems.  Click here to see the assignment log.  

Chemistry 11:  We took brief notes on "The Mole" once the Intro Unit Practice Tests were handed in.  We read the beginning of Chapter 5 in Hebdon, and completed Unit 5 # 6 & 7 (any 8 total) 8 & 9 (any 8 total), and 10.  These are not due Thursday - spend time preparing for your Intro Unit Test on Thursday instead.   Ensure that your databooklet has helpful notes written on it - you can use your databooklet during your unit test.  Click here to see the assignment log.
