September 1st

The weekly schedule for AP Biology is linked here. We went over last week's homework for Chapter 2 and finished up the notes for that chapter.

The video of the day is an awesome one that really shows the cohesive power of water:

In physical science we finished the notes for Chapter 2 - Properties of Matter and did a demo where we looked at the chemical properties of aluminum and magnesium in response to heat.

For physical science, there are review questions for Chapter 2:
pg. 44 #1-6
pg. 51 #1-6
pg. 58 #1-7

The video of the day is about a weird type of matter - dark matter:

In AP Biology, we did some ACT practice and began our notes for Chapter 2 - Basic Chemistry. We will finish these notes up on Monday.

Today's two AP Biology videos of the day are all about water:

 

In physical science, we did the pre-lab from pg. 37, which is all about physical properties of matter. We also began notes on Chapter 2 - Properties of Matter. We talked about viscosity of liquids and watched the following video about the longest running science experiment in the world - some scientists have been watching a container of pitch for nearly 100 years to show that pitch is indeed a liquid.
