Cover Work for today

I have printed copies in my hand, and I'm outside BR02, or the work is below:

Cover – Year 12
Tuesday 7th Feb P5
We are about to begin the energy topic, please use this lesson to check you have a good understanding of the following ideas from GCSE. For some of you these ideas will be new and you may need to look at GCSE revision websites or a text book to clarify your ideas:
1.       Experiments to measure energy changes including the use of the Q=mcΔT equations and the way to collect data to then use this equation
2.       Ideas of endothermic and exothermic reactions, and how this relates to bond formation and bond breaking
3.       Energy profile diagrams – what are they and how are they used to show energy changes in reaction
4.       Consideration of where energy goes to or is removed from during a chemical reaction
5.       Examples of endothermic and exothermic reactions

You will not need to recall these in front of the class after ½ term, but I will expect you to have notes on these subjects and be able to answer questions.

Have a lovely holiday!

Yours

Absent teacher - 12 CCh

Hello hello,

I'm sorry to say but our Friday lesson is going to be cut short, as I have to go to a meeting with some building contractors about taps and the like. I will be with you until 1358. I will give you work to do, and expect you to stay and pile through it, so don't feel too neglected.

I am also cancelling our lesson on Tuesday next week, when we were going to do PAG 4.3. The Festival of Ancient and Modern Science is being set up in the new build and I need to help with that AND go and be charming to Professor Robert Winston (off the telly). I am sorry and I will put some work on the blog, or give it to you tomorrow, so you know what to do.

I am keen if any of you would like to help people set up though, or if you'd like to ask Robert a question during his introductory speech in the shall. Just let me know.

Yours
Ms Elias
Dear year 12B
