Science

Today we discussed various science tools and what they are used for in experiments. We reviewed our results from the first part of our investigation yesterday on systems. Ask your student: What was the one variable we investigated yesterday and how did it affect the car's speed?

Today we did the second part of the investigation by completing steps #7 & 8. If students did not finish reading and taking notes from pages 3-9 in the science book, they need to finish this as homework.

Our first Daily Science Quiz will be next Wednesday, October 5th. Students will use their Daily Sciences #1-18 from our daily class use to help them with this quiz.

Geometry

Classwork: Continued our discussion of proofs and extended our understanding with the segment addition postulate, angle addition postulate and vertical angels theorem.

Homework: Introduction to proofs (1.6 notes addition) # 7-12 on pages 4-6.
