Today we corrected the Activity 2-10 from yesterday. Then we did a lab on measuring the mass of different liquids. The lab write-up for it is due tomorrow.
The weather today is, yet again, cloudy and raining. Hopefully next week will bring better weather.
P.S. There are only 16 days of school LEFT! Hooray!

Here is a neat website to play around with viscosity.

Today we had fudgsicles to celebrate 1000 hits on our blog. We are already at 1404 hits today. We worked on a logic puzzle for density, volume and mass. Remember you can’t do the questions in order. We went to the lab for the last half of class to work on our Wiki.
I’m loving the images but we need to work on the text as well. Thanks to Leah for the Red Wiggler Composting information.
Yes boys I can check the history and I know who puts the kitten attacking the pitbull picture up. I am all powerful!!
Coke Vs. Diet Coke Density Lab
Check out more video on today's lab at our wiki science90.wikispaces.com
Coke Vs. Diet Coke
Friday, May 25th, in Rosso’s science 9 we dumped two cans into a fish tank. We used Coke and Diet Coke to see which one has more density. Diet Coke is less dense; therefore it floated. Coke sank. And check out Travis’s and Adam’s gummiebear video on the Wiki.
P.S. the gummybear lab had to be handed in by the end of the class.
AND… The density sheet we worked on in the computer lab is due THIS monday.
