Hi Everyone.  I apologize this is my first post of the week ! This is everything that went on today...

Forensics

In class today I announced the test on Friday.  The test is on Crime Scene Basics & Eye Witness Information.  You should also know the general premise of the Lindbergh kidnapping, Lizzie Borden case, and Ronald Cotton case (man put in jail because of false eye witness accounts !). I handed back your Forensics history papers as well.  If you did not hand in a reference page you can hand it in by Friday for 1/2credit (this is significant as the reference page was 20% of the grade so you can get 10% back !).  You also should have read that article and wrote a 1 page summary which I will check tomorrow.  Tomorrow in class we will review some more and test Friday.  The test will be a mix of multiple choice, fill-ins, and essay questions.

Homework

1 page Summary of the Eye Witness article/Study for Test

Integrated Science

Today in class we did more measurement notes and examples. Complete understanding of the metric system takes time so do not get discouraged ! We will keep practicing and hopefully perform a lab on Friday.  Try to rememeber the prefixes and the little shortcut I gave you today

Smaller Units to Larger Units = Smaller # than when you started - move the decimal point left


Larger Units to Smaller Units = Larger # than when you started - move the decimal point right

We will keep practicing and I will create some kind of example for you

Today was the last day to get any credit on late work.


Homework
Periods C&E = Metric Conversion Challenge Worksheet
Period D = Metric Worksheet #'s 1-20 (first column)
Period G = Metric conversion examples #'s 1-5


 Try these and show your work - even if you dont get it try something ! you may surprise yourself :)

Have a nice day & see you tomorrow
