Starting Capter 8 Photosynthesis and Respiration

Hi

I'm pleased to announce that Science Nite has been rescheduled for this Wednesday November 14th, starting at 5:30 and will continue until about 7pm. The event will be similar to last year with a pot luck supper from 5:30 and a kick off demonstration at 6pm. Families are welcome. If you come I will also give you extra credit for coming and helping us out. I'd love to see all Academy Students at this event.

Homework for this week includes:
Chapter 8 notes, I would like to see your notes in outline form. It will give me a chance to see how you take notes while reading a text book.
Laboratory Write up on the "Osmosis and the Egg" lab. This week we will open up our eggs to see what has passed through the egg's semipermeable membrane.
