Science
> we are currently working on "models of molecules". This is the last section of chapter 2. Students from class 9I were assigned 7 molecules to draw.
Concurrently, we will be working on an in class element assignment. If students are present and use their time well, most work should be completed in the class. It will be due November 24. Each class will have 2 classes in the computer lab.
> the chapter 2 science test will be November 23. Outline is below.
Math
We are still working in section 2.2 - fractions. Students may make arrangements for extra help if needed. Students need to study the rules! We will have a chapter 2 test middle of next week.
Homework - finish what was not completed in class. # 5- 8 page 68 have been assigned.
