At least the data collection…

Now they have a big report to write!

The week off of school came at a bad time for student investigations but they have been focusing durning class and chose to come in to the lab at other times in their schedules. I appreciate their dedication. Here are some photos and videos of them at work.

Next week grade 12 students will be turning their attention to mastering the concepts of electrochemistry so they will be pondering the mysteries of rechargeable batteries. This will be what is on their minds when they are staring into their phone screens.

Grade 11 students are closing in on the end of their stoichiometry (what?) unit. We’ve got a week of work and a couple lab experiences to fit into next week and their exam is the following week. They have a lot of learning to consolidate and should be studying and reviewing. Practice makes perfect!

Biology students just finished their opening unit on cell biology. We had a quick introduction to molecular biology this week after the exam. Students were thinking about what it means to be alive from a chemical perspective give and what this has to do with our own awareness of our lives and thought.

Have a great weekend!
