Stuff Matters

A word about books: In this class I will refer to different kinds of books, and I want you to be careful to distinguish between the different kinds:

  • Textbook Physical Science - These belong to you; you may write and highlight in your own books.
  • spiral bound notes book- to take notes from class and from the videos and textbook homework.  Please title and date each new entry.
  • 3-ring binder for handouts (separate or part of your big binder)
  • lab notebook, for experiments and demonstration labs.

 The Scientific Method 30min [right-click on the colored words; it will take you directly to a new page.]   Print out these files:
Note Taking Guide    Questions Part 1    Questions Part 2
 Pause the video when asked and follow the directions.  Take notes, filling in the worksheets as you go.  YOU WILL NEED A CANDLE AND MATCHES AND Please FOLLOW SAFETY PROTOCOLS.



MythBusters!  watch the episode above (5 minutes), and write a summary in your  notebook: observations, hypothesis, experiment, conclusion.  How did they follow the scientific method?

If you need help, feel free to call on any day except Sunday.  415 892-8540  Computer or printer issues? tell me right away.  ALSO, DOES ANYONE HAVE A PVC PIPE CUTTER? Ask your dads...Put it in your backpack right now and bring on Monday. And leave a comment.
