Science 9:  We went over pg 344 # 1-7 first, then spent some time reviewing Chemistry topics.  We took notes on Electrical Energy, and watched a clip on Solar Farming and on Wind Turbines.  In the second half we completed the Practice Final Exam, (click here to see the key for this).  Tomorrow you will write your Final Exam for Science 9.  Ensure that you have a calculator, pencil and eraser.  I will collect the contents of your binder and I will check it for completeness and for roughly chronological order.  

 Chemistry 11:  Today we did Lab 7B, which is not due on Monday.  Spend time this weekend preparing for your Final Exam next week.  See last day's post for the review materials and the keys.

Science 9:  Today we learned how to calculate electrical power using this equation:  P = VI (P is power in Watts, V is voltage in Volts, and I is Current in Amps).  We read 11.2 and completed pg 344 # 1-7, which is due next class.  To prepare for your Final Exam on Thursday,  spend time reviewing your class notes and any assignments you finished this year.  You will get a practice Final Exam on Wednesday afternoon.  Your Final Exam will be on Thursday morning.

 Science 9.  We began with a short review and time to complete the Resistor Color Code WS 2, which is due Friday.  We took notes on Resistance and Ohm's Law, we read section 10.4, and we did the Ohm's Law WS.  In the final portion of class we measured resistors and found the percent deviation.  We also did some year end review.

Chemistry 11:  We started with a review of [Ions]. We completed a mini-lab on Precipitation Reactions, and for each reaction we wrote a Formula Equation, Complete Ionic Equation, and a Net Ionic Equation.  In the second half we spent time reviewing for our Final Exam.  Below are the practice items you have been give as well as some answer keys, with links to some.  These review items will be collected on the day of your Final Exam.

 Chemistry 11:  We started with a little year end review:  Categories of Matter, Reaction Categories, etc.  We took notes on Solution Chemistry, adding to last day's notes.  Click here to see the notes.  Time was given to complete the Concentration of Ions WS ( which is due next class) and Lab 6E (Questions 1-3 only, no FUQ or conclusion, due Friday).  No one should be heading home with a lot of homework today - use the time to review for your favorite final exam.

Science 9:  I collected pg 309 # 1-5, 7-12.  Today we learned about how use the color codes on resistors to determine their resistance.  Due next class is the color code WS and pg 314 # 6-11.

Science 9:  After a short review we did the Voltages in Parallel and Series Lab, which is due for next class.  We also spent time finishing pg 309 # 1-5, 7-12, also due next class.  We spent a little time reviewing topics from September and October.  Please spend some time studing with a classmate or other helpful person - we have a final exam next week. 

Chemistry 11:  I collected your Organic Practice Test at the start of today's class.  We did the Organic Unit Test, then spent time on year-end review and Lab 6E.  No work is due Tuesday.

Chemistry 11:  We began with Part I of Lab 6E.  Nothing is due for 6E on Monday.  The other portion was spent completing the Organic Practice Test, which is due Monday.  Your Organic Test will be Monday too.

Science 9:  We took notes on Current Electricity, then read section 10.2.  Due Monday is pg 309 # #1-5, 7-12.  Write in sentences where appropriate, and make large clear schematic diagrams when asked.  (Diagrams should be about as big as a bank card).  We also watched this clip on Current Electricity. 

Science 9:   We began with an assignment where we practiced skills with Scientific Notation and number prefixes [ kilo = 1000, Mega = 1 000 000, Giga = 1 000 000 000].  Click here to see the WS.  Click here to see the key.  Time was given to complete the Electronics Booklet, which can be accessed from January 11th's post.  Click here to see the Electronics booklet answer key.  In the second half we learned how to measure the voltage of cells and batteries, and we recorded data on a number of types of sources (D, AA, AAA, coin batteries, Automotive batteries, 6V batteries).  In the final portion of class we read section 10.1 in Science Probe 9 and did pg 305 # 1-10, 12, which is due on Friday.  

Chemistry 11:  We began with a short review of functional groups, then we learned how to write organic reactions that form esters from carboxylic acids and alcohols.  We completed a home made worksheet with 5 reactions, this is due Friday.  Time was given to complete the Organic Practice Test, which is due just before you write your Organic Chemistry Test on Monday.  The last portion of class was spent on writing Dissolving Reactions and stating the concentration of each ion in solutions.  This video clip shows an animation of dissolving ionic NaCl, showing the free ions produced.  Numbers 1 - 4 on the Concentration of Ions WS is due Friday too.  Click here to see the key for # 1-4
