Tuesday, October 7th

In AP Biology, we continued to work on lab reports. Rough drafts are due Monday, October 13th. The introduction section for your semester-long project is due on Friday, October 10th.

In Physical science, we did a lab concerning chromatography. Chromatography is the separation of pigments depending on their ability to dissolve in a given solvent. In this case, we were looking at the effect of alcohol, acetone or water on different types of markers. Some cool pictures from our results are shown below.

In AP Biology, we looked at examples of primary literature and did some research of our own. Your annotated bibliography will be due Monday, September 15th with five sources.

In physical science, we took a step away from science and watched a documentary on the attacks of September 11, 2001. I've shared a link to a better quality version the video below if you want to finish watching from where we left off.

In AP Biology, we began working on our semester-long project. The rough outline for your project is due tomorrow.

In physical science, we took notes on the metric system and scientific notation. We also did a lab to determine the thickness of a piece of aluminum foil.
