9KMn Reflects..

This year I have decided to set up blogs for my year 9 science class, 9KMn. We are still waiting on a few things to be organised (netbooks, logons) before I can do that, so in the meantime I had students email me their feedback on some of the activities we have done to start the year in science.


Here is what some of 9KMn thought:

For me science is where we get  to experience chemicals to see how things work. From my perspective science is pretty cool because there are a variety of things you can do such as learning how to set a bunsen burner, naming the different equipment in the room and others.

This year, Science has been pretty good and I am enjoying every single part of it. We have learnt the different equipment like Bunsen Burner and all sorts, Hopefully I can be able to learn some more.

During the past 3 days including today I have learnt the safety rules for my science class and had made a poster about how to be safe and secure in class. We learnt that cute adorable puppies and kittens are easier to be tested than human beings. I learnt that whenever we enter the classroom we have to do the “Do Now”. The class and I went over the equipment like a Bunsen Burner that can make blue flames.

Great Work by 9PLa

Today our Year 9 classes learned all about the different pieces of science equipment that we use. 

9PLa created some fantastic presentations sharing what they learned about the equipment during the lesson! 

Look carefully for students using the word 'because' in their sentences. We set students the challenge to think about and then explain WHY we use the equipment the way that we do.
