Agenda Friday December 15

1 Turn in Penny Lab WS
2 Test CH5

Tonight is the Combustion Comparison Demonstration at 5:30.  Dress warmly?  It was 60 degrees at my house last night but it is colder here down the hill.  That gives us an inversion layer and we are now on, I believe, our 8th consecutive spare the air day.

Here is a short video of the hydrogen plus oxygen balloon.

It was great to see all of the Sunnyvale SUNN Swim Team out for the demonstration.  Thanks again to Mr. Lestiko and Mr. Realini for their expertise and support.

The make up test yesterday went pretty well.  There weren't as many students as had signed up.  Next make up day will probably be on Thursday 12/14 after school.
