Week Number Three

This week, a woman from a state program came and taught a lesson on Monday. She talked about neurotransmitters and hormones and her teaching style was... interesting. Not bad, just interesting. We also had a lab this week where we tested 6 liquids (sugar water, corn starch, an egg mixture, vegetable oil, and two unknown substances) with iodine, Sudan #3, and Beirut. We were later asked what we thought the unknown liquids were. My group had a little trouble with iodine testing so we did that part twice. Before we started, Mr. Vogler said that this would be more of a chemistry lab. I didn't think I would like it because in the past I have had issues with chemistry but this one was pretty cool. On Friday, I could have gone on the field trip with my Principles of Tech I class but I wasn't really into being stuck on a bus for four hours with mostly guys. I don’t think it would be worth it. So, instead, I came to school like normal and our review on Friday was great. We went through all of the topics for this unit to prepare for the Unit Test on Monday.


My partners for our collection project and I have been working on developing some way to present our collection of medicinal plants and I think we have finally decided on a layout.
