Class Update

Thursday, December 10. On Tuesday we finished coloring in our periodic tables to highlight the different families of elements and learned about some of the characteristics of each family (Alkali Metals, Halogens, Noble Gases, etc.). We watched a short video and listened to the music of Tom Lehrer: The Elements and They Might Be Giants:Meet the Elements (Check it out on Youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d0zION8xjbM).
We went onto Teacher's Domain as well and watched some excerpts from Nova that told how the elements were created in Stars and Supernovae and took notes on how this process works.
