US History Quiz...

Because we have had to change the schedule around for 9th & 10th US History due to the field trip on Friday, there will be a Quiz on Wednesday, October 31st, that covers the last section of the chapter. Be sure to study! We will have a review game in preparation for the Test on Thursday, November 1st.

Extra Credit Video...

Since we did not have enough time to watch the video describing flowing fluids and the physics behind their movement, I have posted it below for you to watch for extra credit. Once you watch, simiply leave a comment that you watched it, and you can earn and extra +5 Points on the Quiz for Wednesday, October 31st.

Fluid Principles...

In 9th & 10th Physical Science we've been studying Fluid Mechanics, continuing on with our learning of how fluids can be used to magnify force. Below are threevideos we watched in class describing the science behind how tsunamis are detected....

...and how two types of fluids: the first one is an enclosed fluid that produces buoyancy...

 ...and then how moving fluids produce the Coanda Effect by adhereing to the surface of the solid. This principle is used in the physics of airplane lift.

Chemistry Compound Video...

Needing help writing Lewis Dot Structures for Covalent Compounds? Check out this video for an easy method for writing in these structures for bonding.

Storybook Reading...

We are one step closer to storytelling and then speeches in the 11th & 12th American Government class. Before we begin with learning about what goes in to storytelling, we will be reading one more book to the Kindergarten class. The schedule will be as follows:

• October 17, 2018: Books chosen
• October 23, 2018: Books read to Mrs. Smith (Practice times due)
• October 24-26, 2018: Books read to Kindergarten class

This will be graded as a test, and I will be listening for changes in voice, pictures pointed out, child involvement in the story, and speed in which the story is read. Practice, Practice!!

Museum Stories...

Today in 9th & 10th US History I handed back the stories written for your museum exhibits. The revised and FINISHED stories are due on Tuesday, October 23rd. This is also including those who simply had some grammatical or spelling errors. These stories will then go to the 11th & 12th who will begin working on the storytelling for you exhibit. I am looking forward to reading your final stories.

Work, Energy, & Power Video....

To tie together the work, energy, & power we have studied in 9th & 10th Physical Science we watched a video during the lecture in class. For anyone wanting to review these concepts or if you were absent then watch the video below.

US History Class Video...

For those in the 9th & 10th US History class who would like to rewatch the videos from the lecture today or for those who were absent from class I am posting them below. These two videos ties together the different sections we've been studying about in this new chapter.

For Rutherford B. Hayes....

And for Chester A. Arthur....

Bonus Chemistry Video...

Since there is a quiz on Tuesday, October 9th, here's a chance to earn and extra five bonus points. Simply watch the video above and leave a comment below that you watched it.
