Magnetic Fields
Hello classmates!
Today Ms.k and us corrected the Questions from yesterday on the text book. It was on page 510. Ms.k has uploaded the corrections on the blog by the way. After that, Ms.k drew a diagram and explained the difference between conventional current flow of positive charges and electron flow theory. On conventional current she showed us how to determine the direction of the current and North using our fingers.
For monday we were given three sheets of assignments. They are Electromagnetism assignments on conventional current. One of them is a page back to back and the other two are just on page each. Thats all we did today and that is all we have to do for monday.
As Ms.k said there is only a couple of days left. Lets not wait until the day before the exam and panic.

g & E Review
I guess I'm scribe for today's class.
We didn't do much today except prepare for tomorrow.
We did a brief review over some things that will be on the test.
Ms. K was kind enough to upload it to our blog, so check it out below.
As a reminder, the test is on the Gravitational and Electric Fields unit.
Oh, and here's something random for your enjoyment.
On average, there are 178 sesame seeds on each McDonalds BigMac bun. =)
And that's it. Good luck tomorrow, study hard.
Later days.

Monday January 14
Today in class we corrected our Electric Fields Worksheet in class and since most of us didn't do it ms.k assigned us more problems from the green booklets. #'s 1,2,3,9, 12 page.444-445.
After we finished those questions we corrected them in class.
And that is all we did in class today.

Scribing for a bonus mark
The next scribe will be Mike
Tuesday January 8 & Wednesday January 9
Hello fellow classmates,
Sorry for being late but here is Tuesday's blog.
On Tuesday all we did in class was correct questions on the smart board from the Gravitational Fields worksheet. We finished all the questions up to 9.
That was about it for Tuesday's class, since it was so short I will post Wednesday's as well.
On Wednesday we corrected the Chapter 5 Review on the board, so there is not upload for the answers. Questions 11 and 12 were for bonus marks if you handed them in. After that we received some new sheets, including a review for the Gravitational Fields unit. If you were not there remember to get the sheets. Remember the test is on Tuesday. We also started the Electric Fields unit.
That's all for Wednesday and Tuesday. Study hard!
