SNC1P Reminders:

1. Our class trip to Ruthven Park is on Tuesday, May 11. Cost is $4.00. You MUST wear closed-toe shoes, long pants and insect repellant is recommended due to a possibility of ticks and mosquitoes. Permission forms and money should be submitted asap.

2. We are having our Chemistry Unit Test on Thursday, May 6. Review will take place on Tuesday and/or Wednesday next week.

SNC1P is now in Period 4. We are about to start learning about compounds so everything up to now is needed information.

A few key points:
1. We are going on a class trip to Ruthven Park on May 11th for the morning only. Students MUST wear long pants and closed toe shoes. Insect repellant is recommended.
2. We have started having mini quizzes. They take place at the start of class and are meant to quiz the information taught the day before as well as encourage students to arrive on time. They take place often but not every day.

Spring is in the air, along with Hydrogen, Nitrogen, Carbon........ Lucky for us we are learning all about the elements!

SNC1P

• News articles are due on Tuesday, April 15.
• Models are overdue; get them in ASAP!
• Lab - electrons jumping (burning solutions) must be handed in by Friday.

What a nice long weekend we just had! Now, back to Chemistry.....

SNC1P - This is a very important week! We are continuing with Bohr Diagrams which is a concept that is needed throughout the rest of this unit and for Grade 10 Science. Students need to ask for help when necessary. The Bohr Diagram/Element Worksheet is due on Wednesday, April 7. Worksheet on origin of element names is now due. Students will have some time on Friday to complete their models. Have them done for Monday.

**The concepts covered now are VERY IMPORTANT! You need to know this information for the rest of the unit, and it carries on into Grade 10. Please ask if you need extra help.**
