Objectives: Daily question Test Reminder Post Labs Collect Lab and Post Lab

After walking into class students picked up Conceptual Physics: Chapter 2 Newton's First Law of Motion sheet, which was pages 22 & 23. Then the class answered the daily question which was, “If Burl is not the scaffolding, how much does each force scale read in configuration B? The answer was that the weight gets divided into both of the scales. After the daily question was finish Mr. Manning reminded the class that their reading guide was due tomorrow and that their test was also tomorrow. Next, all students went back to their lab tables to continue working on their Static Equilibrium Lab that they started the day before or if they had finished already they worked on their post labs. In the lab we were trying to find out how weight distributes into multiple scales. To do this a yard stick, ruler, three scales, and the weight were used.

The lab also required that students creat a graph to answer one of the question. As stated earlier, if students were already done with this part of the lab they began to work on the Static Equilibrium post lab. The post lab used the model and the Static Equilibrium Lab to answer the questions. Due to a shortened period because of the day being an early dismissal most of the students did not finish their work so they were given the option of turning their labs in the next day.
