Science 10 -  Students had an introduction to the motion unit today. They were introduced to terms, proper process for completing physics problems, and to significant figures. Period 3 did not cover this as over half of the class was gone to JMH for the morning for workshops. They will cover this tomorrow in class. Students were also told that there is a lot of math in this unit and that if they struggle with math that they will need to practice more, pay very close attention, and attend extra help if needed.   Science 9 - Students examined genetic disorders today in class. Downs, Turners, and Klinefelters were the three genetic disorders that were focused on but students also watched a video that mentioned Cystic Firbrosis, Tay Sachs, and Muscular Dystrophy as well. Students were very mature when examining these disorders and had some insightful questions as well. Students were given an assignment near the end of class on mitosis and meiosis that is due tomorrow. They will have some time to complete this assignment in class but it must be handed in before the end of class tomorrow. Reminder of the test on Tuesday.

Science 10 - Students wrote a quiz today on the pH scale and were introduced to neutralization reactions. Students were assigned homework questions and will have these checked tomorrow. Students will also get their test reviews tomorrow for the test on Wednesday. The test will cover reaction rates as well as acids and bases.  Science 9 - Students had their homework corrected then proceeded to discuss transplant farms in groups. Students came up with some great arguements for and against transplant farms with most of the class siding against the idea. No homework assigned.
