Grade 6 Science

The students have been presenting their Space project visual to the class.  They are presenting what they made and what their topic was.  Next week, we should be starting a new unit on Flight.

Grade 8 Science

The students wrote their Mechanical Efficiency test on Monday.  We began our new unit on Cells.  They had a hand out and questions on the back to complete for homework.

Grade 6 Science

The students were given some time this week to complete their rough copy for their final written space project.  They handed in their complete project today which included their visual and typed final written report.

Grade 7 Science

On behalf of LKS, we would like to thank our Parent Council for allowing the Grade 7s to have Scientist in the School this week.  They had a fun-filled, hands on workshop about Structures and Mechanisms which will be their next unit of study.

Next week, the students will finish up with learning about different types of solutions and they will carry out an investigation on them.

Grade 8 Science

The students displayed their hydraulic projects on Wednesday and the Grade 5-7 classes voted on their top three choices.

We took up more practice questions from their work booklet.  The students will have a test on Monday.

They had an opportunity to check their review questions and answers.  They do not need a textbook to study for this test.  They should be done with all the review questions and should rely on their completed homework and notes in their booklet.

Grade 7 Science

The students conducted an experiment investigating the factors that affect the rate of dissolving.  We discussed their results and took up questions.  They received a hand out that summarized all the concepts we have covered.  Next week, they will be conducting another experiment investigating unsaturated, saturated and supersaturated solutions.

Grade 6 Science

The students were given all week to work on a rough copy for their final written report on their space topic.  Next week, a good typed copy will be due as well as their space visual.
