Mr. C (AP US History/Current Issues/AP Psychology)This week in US History we are beginning to explore the ways in which native peoples engaged with their environment(s) prior to European arrival, while in AP US History we are discussing the Articles of Confederation and the Constitutional Convention. Current Issues & World Affairs students are beginning to understand Civic Virtues and have been discussing congressional redistricting and the practice of gerrymandering - demonstrating strong values of fairness and democracy throughout. The highlight of Psychology this week will be students developing scenarios to help each other practice applying their understanding of the parts of the brain and their functions!
Mr. Lavoie (Chemistry)
This week we've been focused on processes to be accurate and precise in the chemistry lab, including working with significant figures. On Wednesday and Thursday students will be putting this to use when they try to determine the identity of an unknown metal using physical properties.
