Science- We are beginning our unit on Electricity and Magnetism. This unit will be very hands-on as we progress through the unit. There will be a lot of writing and defending claims/conclusions as well as working with groups. We have discussed again the expectations for working with a group and how to make everyone comfortable with working with other students in class.
The website listed here may help you at home. Some of the links are old and may not work. (I did check to see and some of them do not).
