Weekly update Feb. 11-14

Next week we will continue our lessons with electric circuits. Students saw today that adding resistors in parallel will decrease resistance. We will examine the implications of this discovery and what it means for electricity in our home (it means too many items in one plug is dangerous, among other things).

It is a shortened week and I will be absent on Tuesday, the 12th. That means we will play some catch up this week as we prepare for the end of our electricity unit during the week of Feb. 19-22. Progress reports are to be given out on Thursday the 14th as students and teachers are off on the 15th.

NOTICE: A quiz retake will be given after school on Monday for the Motors/Generators quiz. Check your grade on the parent portal and study if you want to retake the quiz for a better grade.
