Sorry about that – I’ll try to do better. How’d you like the Oobleck lab? Ever heard of a non-Newtonian fluid? Well now you have! I posted the YouTube video clip that I showed in class today in the VodPod below. Scroll down to the bottom right and you should see it in the VodPod collection of videos. So … here’s the kind of short lecture on SI Measurements. We’ll finish talking about guidelines on writing units/measurements on Monday. Good luck on memorizing the prefixes, etc.! And have a great extra long weekend!!

Ever heard of a non-Newtonian fluid? Well now you have! I posted the YouTube video clip that I showed in class today in the VodPod below. Scroll down to the bottom right and you should see it in the VodPod collection of videos. Anywho, here’s the lecture from Wednesday on the intro to SI measurements. As before, I’m sure it’s mostly review from your physical science days, but it’s a great opportunity to refresh what you’ve learned and to get ready to begin using it! We’ll do derived units tomorrow.

Make sure you’re not just showing the math, but that I can also follow your logic in the formulas. Ditto with units, etc.

Great job on your projects – I think this is the first year that all of the light bulbs worked! I can’t wait to see what you’re going to do with the King of the Hill project!

Great work on the boards!
