 Science 8:  We did another round of finding the epicenter, given three seismograms.  Due next class are Discussion Questions, # 1-5, written in fine sentences.  In the second half we did the Pangaea cut and paste, which is also due Friday.  We watched this clip, which does not explain continental drift, but is fun anyway.  We also looked at this animation that makes a guess at the positions of the continents in the past and future.   The last minutes were spent going through the local mountain peaks visible from the school.  Click on this google view to see most of those peaks (clockwise:  Begbie, MacPherson, Boulder, Kirkup, Copeland, Frisby, Revelstoke, Mackenzie, Cartier).  

Chemistry 12:  We began electrochem today, by looking at a chemical cell, reading 9.1, and completing unit 5 # 1,2.  I collected the practice test and marked the written part, then we went over the answer to the multiple choice.  We watched this clip about ocean acidification due CO2 absorbtion.  Next class we will complete the Acids and Bases unit test, and you can use your own databooklet with its helpful equations and notes.
