Wednesday, March 7

Science: Worked on project plans and initial designs, see Monday's post for a copy of the project planner. Discussed research and starting to build initial circuits, wire and light bulbs were distributed to all students who wanted these supplies. Students should begin building their circuits as soon as possible! We will spend the rest of this week reviewing for Tuesday's test, next week Wed-Fri will be devoted to project work. Important dates to keep in mind:
- Tuesday, March 13: Electricity Test
- Wednesday, March 14: Initial circuit built (this is not something to be turned in, but to help procrastination!)
- Wednesday, March 21: Project due

Geometry: Went over the 10.2 homework and 10.3 notes (relationships of chords in circles). 10.3 worksheet is homework, 10.1-10.4 quiz is Friday.

Pre-Algebra: We worked solving equations with fractions.  No homework.

Humanities: Students reviewed learning goals, took a pre-test for chapter 12 and shared current events in class. No homework.
