Week of April 25 - 29

This week we will be continuing on our electricity and magnetism project. The is an ongoing project that was described in last week's post. The project is worth 120 points and it will be due on Thursday the 28th. We will also have both an electricity standard (Thursday & Friday) and a Unit quiz (Friday). Since the standard requires that students practice for it, the standard is posted below. We will have class time for practice. Also one of the two extra credits for 4th quarter will be given this week. It is an assignment which asks students to calculate the electricity use the lights in Mr. Howell's classroom. This assignment will be due on Monday the May 2nd.
