No assignment today as you had your Chapter 8 test.
Congratulations go out Team Odds as Michelle earned the point on the Chapter 8 test. Team Odds now has an 8-6 lead over Team Evens but there's still plenty of semester left and most of the Odds have earned points for their tests. Evens you better do your best during our review games or other projects to catch up!

Physics 11 Assignment
No assignment today as you guys did your Chapter 7 test.
I think I made it too easy as 4 of you got 100% and 2 got 41/42. Congrats go out to Team Evens (who for some reason now have named themselves The Odds) as Dana and Van both got 100% (Tony and Tarneer did too but they already earned points). Dana will earn the point as I marked hers first and this brings the scores to 7 to 5 in favour of Team Odds (who are now known as The Evens)
Another reminder that your Rube Goldberg Machine videos are due on Monday! I will show them to the rest of the science teachers and ask which they think is the best and that will earn another point for their team.
