Physics 30

We will complete going through vectors this week!

Some good youtube videos to help with understanding:

Math 9

We start Rational numbers!

GAMES

http://www.hoodamath.com/games/fraction.html

Outcome: N9.2
Demonstrate understanding of rational numbers including: 

  • comparing and ordering
  • relating to other types of numbers
  • solving situational questions.
[C, CN, PS, R, T, V] 

  1. Order a given set of rational numbers, in fraction and decimal form, by placing them on a number line and explaining the reasoning used (e.g., 3/5, - 0.666, 4,… , 0.5, -5/8).
  2. Determine a rational number between two given rational numbers and describe the strategy used.
  3. Create a representation depicting how whole numbers, fractions, decimals, integers, square roots, and rational numbers are related to each other.
  4. Provide examples to explain how knowing about how to add, subtract, multiply, and divide integers and positive rational numbers informs knowing how to add, subtract, multiply, and divide rational numbers.
  5. Provide examples to demonstrate how the order of operations can be extended to rational numbers.
  6. Solve situational questions involving operations on rational numbers, with or without the use of technology.
  7. Analyze a simplification of an expression involving rational numbers for errors.

Science 8

We continue with talking about cells but now we move to systems... 

Outcome: CS8.3
Distinguish structural and functional relationships among cells, tissues, organs, and organ systems in humans and how this knowledge is important to various careers. [CP, SI] 

  1. Pose questions about the composition of the human body such as “What are humans made of?”.
  2. Research various ideas and theories, past and present, used to explain the composition of the human body (e.g., living organisms were made of air, fire, and water; and body is animated by spirit).
  3. Analyze why cells and tissues are specialized in multi-cellular organisms.
  4. Describe the function and provide examples of the four major types of tissue found in humans (i.e., muscle, nerve, epithelial, and connective tissue).
  5. Construct a representation of the relationships among cells, tissues, organs, and organ systems in humans using examples from the respiratory, circulatory, digestive, excretory, and nervous systems.
  6. Relate the needs and functions of various cells and organs to the needs and functions of the human organism as a whole.
  7. Summarize the main points of modern cell theory and identify the contributions of men and women, past and present, to the development of the theory.
  8. Describe examples of science- and technology-based careers in Saskatchewan that require an understanding of cells and human body systems (e.g., lab and X-ray technicians, doctors, physiotherapists, nutritionists, and public health nurses).

We are working on Cycle Presentations.  Some students are making movies, some are making PowerPoints while others are making songs!  I'm excited to see the results!
