Math home-link 2.3 Time was given in class to work on H.L. 2.3 and most are finished and handed in. A few students have two problems to finish up at home.
Classroom Newsy Things:
We started our "Energy" unit in science today. Everyone has three pages of vocabulary pages to study for the test that will be given next Thursday. There are 10 terms to know and the test will consist of matching the term to the definition.
We finished lesson 1 today about potential and kinetic energy. Please keep all science papers in three ring binders.
I hung a tennis ball attached to a string to the ceiling to demonstrate potential and kinetic energy. We went out to the playground to practice potential and kinetic energy in action on the swings and slide. Another thing that everyone was excited about was the Giant Newton's Cradle Giant Balance Balls that I used to show the transfer of energy. We bought it on Amazon and it was not expensive. Just a heads up... many students might be asking for an early Christmas present.
