Wednesday and Thursday Sept 29 and 30

Chem Club - Advisory!
We had lots of fun during advisory making chromatography t-shirts! We also got grade updates! Get those grades up!!

Regular Chemistry
We corrected your review worksheet and took a test. No homework other than Chem think - Ionic bonds and covalent bonds need to be completed by Oct 15.

Honors Chemistry
We corrected your review worksheet and took a test. No homework other than Chem think - Ionic bonds and covalent bonds need to be completed by Oct 15.

AP Chemistry
Today we got caught up on correcting all of the naming worksheets. Next time you will have a long quiz on naming. You must pass this test with 80% or take it again and again until you do. We finished the endothermic and exothermic lab by graphing the data. We started into our voyage through equations. You were introduced to the types of reactions and assigned the first two pages of the voyage through equations worksheet. Please get the CBL lab Chemical Formulas written up in your lab notebook for next time! We will start this lab next time.

Second Week of School...

Wow, where has the week gone. We are following the calendars. Please make sure that you are keeping up.

The grade book is current as of 4:30 pm today. If you don't agree please see me soon. Please let me know if you can't see the calendars. I have reloaded Regular and AP Calendars.

AP notice that I have pushed back the due date on the assignments. Please do the problems that you can...we will be doing more notes next time and hopefully be caught up on the lecture portion.

Please let me know ASAP if you don't understand anything. That is for ALL CLASSES!

I will post the pink shoes only sign on lab days as a reminder... make sure that you are looking at the calendar. Remember that I told you to keep a pair of shoes available at school if you like to wear flip flops. I will try to remind you the day before...but I might forget.
