Wednesday, 30 March through Friday, 1 April, 2011


This is HL 14 and is due on Thursday. Turn in one copy of the handout to me, keep the other page for your notebook.


This is HL 16, due on Friday. Head your loose leaf paper correctly.

Students will be able to:
use information from the Science Court Series and classroom discussions to
-define Newton's first law of motion, mass, inertia, and friction.
-demonstrate Newton's first law of motion.
-explain why some objects have more inertia than others.
-provide examples of forces that get objects moving and that slow them down.

Students continued the Science Court project on inertia. Today, students did the laboratory activity to accompany the series. Students designed clay figures and placed them on a moving vehicle to demonstrate the result of inertia on objects. Students continued to work in teams to find the answers to the problems.

Since we will be working on this activity for the remainder of the week, all home learnings are posted on this blog.

Home learning 14 is due on Thursday and can be found at the top of this blog.

Home learning 15 is due on Friday, and can also be found at the top of this blog.
