Science 10: Light and Reflection Unit - Nov 11-Dec 10

B:  Mon Dec 9) G: Tues Dec 10 : 
Reflection test
homework:  complete p. 2 in new package on rearranging equations and complex conversions. (period G:  also do the section on p. 4 on Sine).

(No class for B on Wed Dec 4)/  G: Thurs Dec 5  

We had a short lesson on sine (p. 3, new package),  then had class time to do p. 2 of NEW Refraction package on rearranging equations and complex conversions.  Then we had a introduction to Refraction (p. 5)  then did study for the Reflection test.

PERIOD B TEST IS MOVED TO MONDAY DEC 9 (Even if there is school on Wednesday, we will not do the Test on Wednesday,  we will do a lesson instead).
PERIOD G TEST WILL BE MOVED TO TUESDAY DEC 10.
Homework:  Study for Reflection Test
To be finished for the class after the test:  p. 2,  p.4 sine exercises.

B:  Mon Dec 2/  G: Tues Dec 3

We went over the homework (p. 501), then started some preparation for our refraction unit (new notes package p. 1-2).  Time was given in class to complete p. 2 on Rearranging equations and doing complex conversions.  After the work, students were given time to do Reflection Test Review.

Homework:  Do p. 2 of NEW Refraction package on rearranging equations and complex conversions,  then do study for the test.

B:  Thurs Nov 28/  G: Fri Nov 29

We went over the curved mirror diagrams from p. 8 and 9,  then we did a lesson/note on advantages/disadvantages and uses of curved mirrors (p. 10-11)

Homework:  Do textbook questions on p. 501 Q #2,3,5,6,7,9,10

B:  Tues Nov 26/  G: Wed Nov 27

We did a lesson on how to draw diagrams showing images formed with convex and concave mirrors (notes p.  6-7).  Those students that were absent for the curved mirrors lab did that lab in the 2nd half of class.

Homework:  Do ALL diagrams on p. 8;  Do 1st and 3rd diagram on p. 9.
Complete focal length of a curved mirror lab and hand in. 

B:  Fri Nov 22/  G: Mon Nov 25

We did a lesson on parts of concave and convex mirrors.  Then we did a lab activity on finding the focal length of a curved mirror. (p. 6)

Homework:  For those in class: no homework.
For those period B students that were absent,  copy curved mirror note on p. 6 from the website so that you are ready to do the lab next class

B:  Wed Nov 20/  G: Thurs Nov 21

We had a quiz on p. 1-2 notes.  We did a lesson that covered Laws of reflection,  diffuse vs. specular reflection and how to draw how the eye sees an image in a plane mirror, and describing image characteristics using SALT.(p. 3-4)

Homework:  .Drawing Practice p.  4-5

B:  Mon Nov 18/  G: Tues Nov 19

We did a short lesson on the ray model of light (p. 2-3).  Then we did a lab on Reflection of Light in plane mirrors.

Homework:  .Study notes p. 1-2 for quiz next class.

B:  Nov 11/  G: Tues Nov 12

We did the introduction to light in a new notes package.  p. 1 (textbook material is 11.1 in chapter 11).  We did the pH/indicators lab and the analysis.  Marks were posted for the report card.

Homework:  Textbook Q. p. 469  Q #1,4,5,9,11.  Optional: Read 11.1 in textbook.

Tentative Important Dates:

Mon Nov 18 B/ Tues Nov 19 G :  Reflection Lab
Wed Nov 20 B/ Thurs Nov 21 G :  Quiz on p.  1-2 on notes
