This Week in Our Classroom:
This week, our students dived into the exciting topic of Thermal Physics, exploring the fundamental principles of heat, temperature, and energy transfer. Through interactive demonstrations and discussions, they examined concepts such as specific heat capacity and thermal equilibrium. Students conducted a hands-on experiment to measure the heat capacity of water, fostering a deeper understanding of energy transfer in real-life situations.
Student Spotlight:
A big round of applause for Reed, who showed exceptional leadership during our thermal equilibrium experiments. His insightful observations and critical thinking helped the group achieve accurate results and sparked meaningful discussions.
Looking Ahead:
Next week, we will continue with Thermal Physics by focusing on the Laws of Thermodynamics and their applications. Students will also participate in a lab activity involving the efficiency of heat engines. Parents, please note that mock exams on all the topics covered will take place next week, so encourage your child to review their notes!
