Experiment design
LESSON & ASSIGNMENT
D block: Student hand in lab & flowcharts. Then we went outside where everyone collected some small, unique object (leaf, twig, rock, etc.) and we came in and did the private eye for an hour. It went VERY well. Students worked quietly all period!
F block: In the last period (with a substitute) students made model water molecules (with 104.5 degree angle) and tried to fashion them into a symmetrical shape that might give rise to hexagonal symmetry such as is found in a snowflake. Today, students worked further and tried to finish their models. [Best solution was that snowflake seems to be two layers of an equilateral triangle; reversed; one on top of the other giving the impression of hexagonal symmetry.]
