Chemistry 11: We stared with short debrief of the Density Lab and some review of naming and writing formulas for Ionic Compounds. We read unit 4.1 to page 72, then completed Unit 4 # 1-3 and any 10 from each of 4 and 5. Period DH finished with a quiz that AE wrote on Friday. Prepare Lab 2D for tomorrow.
Science 9: Today we learned about sexual reproduction. pg 78 # 1-17 is due for Tuesday, half in sentences and half in quality point form.
Chemistry 11 EA. In the first half we reviewed Significant Figures and completed Lab 3A (all Procedure, Questions 1,4 and Follow-up Questions 2 & 3. Lab 3A is due on Friday. In the second half we took notes on the Particles of Matter, click here to see them. We also completed the Atoms and Molecules WS. Read section 3.3 in your Hebdon Textbook, and complete problems # 33 - 44.
Science 9: After a short discussion of lunch etiquette at RSS, we finished our notes on the Cell Cycle - click here to see them. Time was given to read section 2.4 and to complete pg 52 # 1-15, 17 (half sentences, half point form). The Mitosis Cut and Paste was finished next, by adding labels to show the stages of Mitosis and adding captions. Color your cells too. In the second half we did Lab 2A, where we viewed slides of cells undergoing mitosis. We did all of the procedure, then Analysis e, f, i and l. We finished with a discussion of Peak Height Velocity.
Chemistry 11: Today I collected your Safety Map sheet. We took notes on Significant Figures (click here to see them) and did Unit 2 # 56 & 57 after reading pgs 34 - 40. We started Lab 3A, and will continue it Wednesday.
Science 9: We went over pg 41 today, and a key was given to your for your cell anatomy WS. We took notes on the Cell Cycle, watched the Amoeba Sisters' video on Mitosis, and started the Mitosis Cut and Paste. At the very end I collected pg 41.
Science 9: Today I collected your Pond Water sketches. Due Tuesday is pg 41 # 1-5, 7, 12, 15 in sentences where appropriate as well as the Cell Structure Worksheet. We also viewed this video on cell structure: (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=URUJD5NEXC8 ). On Tuesday we will learn about the cell cycle and mitosis (Section 2.4, if you like to pre-read)
Chemistry 11: We began with a short exercise on Scientific Notation (click here to view it) . We took notes on the Categories of Matter (click here for a copy), then filled in the third column of our Matter table from Friday. In the third column, provide 3 descriptions for each material: (pure or mixture), (homogeneous or heterogeneous), (element, compound, suspension, solution, mechanical mixture). We then read sections 1.2 to 1.6, and completed the map. On Tuesday we will read pg 34 - 40 to learn about Significant Figures, then we will complete # 55, 56, 57 in Unit 4. Check out this short clip on Petroleum, the key source for organic chemicals.
Chemistry 11: We did Lab 16A in the first half and spent time on Year End Review in the second half. Everyone was given a Chemical Reactions Year End Review WS, and when it is complete you can get a review assignment from another unit of your choosing. The Organic Test will be tomorrow, Tuesday. Your Final Exam will be Thursday - please don't forget that you will be given a fresh data booklet for Thursday's final exam so if you have helpful notes written on your current data booklet, they will need to be studied and committed to memory.
Chemistry 11: We started with a lesson on Ester Formation, then made and completed a homemade worksheet with 5 different reactions. Esters make many flavours in fruits: check out this graphic of different esters and their acid & alcohol components. Lab 16A was prepared for Monday, then time was given for the Practice Final and the Organic Practice Test. In the second half we took notes on the conductivity in solutions. We read sections 9.1 and 9.2, then did Unit 9 # 6-8.
Chemistry 11: After a short lesson on Alcohols, we read page 233 and did Unit 10 # 32 and 33. A worksheet on Alcohols followed, then a video on How Its Made: Wine. In the second half, we found the concentration of each ion in ionic solutions. A WS titled "Concentration of Ions" is due on Thursday too.

Chemistry 11: We started with a lesson on cis and trans isomers, click here to see the notes we added to last day's notes. WS #6 was completed next. After the break we started with a video that showed how natural gas is made into plastic. We learned about Aromatics, a class of compounds with rings that have alternating single and double bonds. Time was given to read sections 10.4 and 10.5 and to complete # 30 & 31, as well as the odd letters (a,c,e,g...) from unit 10 # 22-28. The final 15 minutes was spent completing a quiz on alkanes, alkenes, and haloalkanes.
