AGENDA
WHOLE GROUP
Students began a new Cornell notes section in their notebook. For the inside section, they copied and solved the above bell ringer question.
Students then submitted and reviewed HL 5.
Students took notes on density. You can find the powerpoint in video form below.
I forgot to show the BrainPop mov on density, so I will show it next class.
Students then added all handouts to this section. They are to update their notebook on their own.
Students are to study for an exam on: laboratory safety, the scientific method (including identifying variables), properties of matter, and density.
