The eighth graders will be visiting the Biodynamic Research Corporation to view an airbag deployment on December 4th. This will be an exciting way to demonstrate the concepts of force, energy, and momentum. (Thank you for the connection, Mr. Prichard)

Each group picks a different room from the physics house. Comment to this post with a paragraph that describes all of the types of energy that you would find in that room.

All of the parents and coaches said that ya’ll were the best volunteers they have had in years!
Ms. Glasgow and I are sick of telling ya’ll to spit it out. It will be an automatic detention!
If you want a regrade you need to submit your corrections and gradesheet, pronto!
Maggie Beth is trying to put together an 8th grade picture thingy but doesn’t have any pictures from ya’ll.
Parents,
Thank you for all the great books from the book fair. Here are the grand donators!
Reagan Gulley donated Physics: Why it Matters! in honor of Mr. Kremer.
Jacob Medina donated Biology: LIfe as We Know it!.
Henry Koontz donated The Periodic Table: Elements with Style!.
Jessica Janes donated Last Minute Science Fair Ideas in honor of Mr. Kremer.
Brock Staskawicz donated What a Great Idea!: Inventions that Changed the World.
And a special thanks to Brock for getting me new white board markers.

8th Graders,
We have been going over a very important concept in physics lately. THE CONSERVATION OF MOMENTUM
First, visit the website that will show you the difference between elastic & inelastic collisions.
Next, use this website to understand the Conservation of Momentum in two dimensions. Think about how the angle of a collision affects how the objects move in pool.
We will be conducting a virtual lab during the long block You can fiddle with it earlier if you would like to. Answer the lab questions for a homework grade and then report one interesting thing you learned in the comments section of this post. Be sure to use correct grammar.
-Mr. K
