Posted: April 15, 2015

Math 8L-Today we learnt two new ways to multiply fractions. The methods involve reducing the fractions before we multiply.-We also looked at how to check our work by estimating. Place the fraction on a number line and use the closest whole number (nombre entier) in the multiplication.-See notes below-Question 7 for homework. Science 8E1 and 8L1 - Students will have next class to finish their lab write up on flow rates. Science 8E2-Students completed their flow rate lab in class today.-Review packet for next test was handed out. We will work on it in class next class.

Math 8L-Worksheet on section 3.2 due tomorrow.-notes posted below. Science 8L2-Review booklet was passed out today for our next test. We worked through the first half of the booklet.-Test is one week from today (day 1)-We also did our taux d'écoulement lab were we learnt that viscosity and flow rate are opposlites. A big flow rate indicates the liquid has a low viscosity. We will finish the lab sheet next class (day 5)

The floating egg

Posted: April 7, 2015

Students did a lab today where they created a density tower. Students layered water and salt water to see how it would affect an egg. As students added salt they were able to see how adding salt particles changed the density of the liquid and the effect that it had on the egg.
