and here is a repost

Here's a repost of the remaining activities. I do need to clear something up. Advanced students won't be working on the roller coasters this week as I previously stated in class. We will be working on the solenoid grasp projects instead. Donations of batteries, round refrigerator magnets, and the types of electrical wire that we have been using in class, insulated and noninsulated are greatly appreciated. We may be able to get by with what we have but more is always better. If not, we'll just rearrange into larger groups for this activity. On the brighter side, it gives my advanced students more time to obtain the supplies they need for this activity.

3/16-- 9 wks exam, all periods

3/17 to 3/20-- Advanced periods will work on their solenoid grasp on 3/17 and 3/18. It shouldn't take more than one class period, but I do not mind doing it twice for variation. On 3/19 and 3/20, the Advanced period will design/build their rockets. The gifted periods will also use this time to design/work on their roller-coaster grasp.

3/23 to 3/24-- Advanced students will work on their roller coasters. Gifted students will visit table-top/marble/spinning top force and motion.

3/25-- Advanced and gifted students will revisit energy conversion activities, both table top and electric.

3/26-- ROCKET LAUNCHING DAY!!! BLAST OFF!!!
