3rd, 5th, and 6th periods

Today, students had time to finish A#8.  They did Activity part 1 and 2, MS, Stretching, W to L.  I changed the instructions for the Practice section.  Students chose one of the scientists referred to in the reading passage and did research on his atomic experiment.  They then wrote a summary paragraph of that experiment.  Lesson A#8 will be checked off on January 3rd, when we return from break.
