=March 22-26th=

= = = = Monday & Tuesday- After reviewing the Lab from Friday, we will conduct a virtual experiment on the computer. Follow these directions, and visit this simulation- http://phet.colorado.edu/simulations/sims.php?sim=Faradays_Electromagnetic_Lab

Wednesday- Speaker Lab!

QUIZ DAY Thursday- **Magnetism Quiz** []

=Want a second chance?= []
 * Magnetism Make Up**

=March 15th-19th=



Monday & Tuesday & Wed & Thurs- Sports and Physics Projects!

=March 8th-12th=



Monday- Sports and Physics Project Conferences!

Tuesday- Today we are going to figure out how to build a circuit, and measure different values in a circuit. http://phet.colorado.edu/simulations/sims.php?sim=Circuit_Construction_Kit_DC_Only

Wednesday - Human Circuit! Voltage, Current, Resistance, and Ohm's Law!



QUIZ DAY THURSDAY- []
 * Current Electricity Quiz CP**

Friday- Building Circuits and Fuses! Build each one of the Tasks below, and take pictures of them on your Macbook. As you take the pictures, place them into a Word document in order to keep them all in one place. Save this document, as we'll revisit it next week.

Task #1 1. Using a piece of foil as a wire, a battery, and a light bulb, get the light bulb to light up!

2. Make a fuse, and set it on fire!

== =March 1-5th=

Monday- Watch the video at the bottom of the page and then answer the questions. Carefully study the descriptions after each of the three clips. Tuesday- Electricity!!! Open this document to learn a few electricity concepts --->

Wednesday- More Static Electricity! The following are two different simulations about Static Electricity. Spend time playing with both John Travoltage- ([]) and Static Balloons ([])

Then, complete this activity-

QUIZ DAY THURSDAY- **Static Electricity CP** []

When you finish with your quiz, visit this link- http://phet.colorado.edu/simulations/sims.php?sim=Circuit_Construction_Kit_DC_Only 1. Create a circuit and light up a light bulb. 2. Measure the amount of current (Amps) in the circuit. 3. Measure the amount of voltage (volts) in the circuit.

Friday- March 5th- While I am out of class today, please work on the following assignments; 1. Science Sports project located on Olympics Page of this wikispace 2. Static Electricity activity- See Wednesday; above 3. Current Electricity activity- Answer these questions, using this website http://phet.colorado.edu/simulations/sims.php?sim=Circuit_Construction_Kit_DC_Only

4. Other missing work.
