Hon Chemistry 10-31-14 Friday’s In Class Assignment

Posted on by

To My Beautiful Honors Chemistry Students: Today I’m giving you a head start on a virtual lab that you are going to be finishing at home. It is the vLAB: Determining an Empirical Formula. You will also do Extension 1.

Be sure and use the lab sheets here on the website and NOT sheets on the textbook site that come with the virtual lab! There are headphones for you to use  if you don’t have your own ear buds.

Be sure and save your work! You won’t be able to save the actual lab, just your lab report. You could save it to your Shared Student Folder at school and email it to yourself, or you could save it to your Google Drive folder as a Word Doc and then you’d be able to access it from home. When you are finished, you will save this lab as a PDF to your Google Drive Turn In Assignment folder and Turnitin.com. Due date is Saturday midnight. This means you have TWO labs due by Saturday midnight – the thLAB on moles and this vLAB.

Have a great day!

Physics 10-31-14 Friction Problems & Friction on Inclines

Posted on by

PHYSICS: Who knew snow skiing could be so complicated! Well friction problems on an incline anyway. Here’s the problem review from the homework and then the beginning of our discussion of friction problems on an incline.

Back to the problems – remember, drawing the diagram is super, super important. Label all the forces and apply the concepts you know about net forces and resultant forces – let it tell you a story. And let’s crank it up a notch on Tuesday. I miss you guys!!

Chemistry 10-31-14 Friday’s In Class Assignment

Posted on by

To My Beautiful Chemistry Students: I miss you today! Here is the assignment for Friday:

A great way to practice writing and naming chemical formulas correctly is to go to sciencegeek.net and practice the Chemistry Review Activities. I want you to practice four sections in Unit 2 and Unit 3 will be very helpful. Click on any of the sections to go the the site.

Use paper to do your work and figure out formulas, add up the masses, etc. You are REQUIRED to go through these activities; however, you don’t have to turn anything in unless Mrs. Cloud decides that it would be best for you to do so. I do want you to practice each section over and over until you can go through each one without making any mistakes!  If you don’t finish today in class, continue to practice these for this weekend’s homework.

Be careful not to get distracted once you are begin work on the laptops. You are to work ONLY on this assignment until the bell rings. Have a great day!
