Today in class, students in Integrated science reviewed their quiz over force basics (Newton’s 1st and 2nd laws, qualitatively). Students then worked on taking notes and learning about a new tool to describe the forces on an object with the Force Diagram Notes. The point of making force diagrams is to learn about motion, and not to learn what forces are acting on objects. We will be continuing the notes tomorrow, and then learning how the objects will move based on the forces acting upon them.

Science 8 students finished up the Making North America-Origins video worksheet, and grading the quotes section. The remainder of the period was spent reviewing the quiz from last week over seismic waves  and Earth’s interior (Seismic Waves and Earth’s interior Quiz KEY). There will be a retake of the last question/exit ticket tomorrow, as well as new information on depositional environments.
