What have you done?
We have answered all the questions for investigation 7, completed all of the required revisions for our circuits project, and worked on some of the practice problems that I had not yet completed on circuits.
What have you learned?
We spent most of this last week catching up on work, which we had not entirely completed. Most of what we did over the last week was review. I was able to review how to find voltage and current using Ohm's Law (V=IR). I was also able to review how to find the resistance of series and parallel circuits. In series circuits, to find the total resistance, you simply add up all the resistances. In parallel circuits however, you use the formula 1/Rt= 1/R1+1/R2. I was also able to review several other things about circuits. For example, the voltage stays constant in parallel circuits.
How will this help you later on in the unit?

This will help me because it helps me to prepare for the circuits test, which I hope to take soon.
This will also allow for me to focus on completing work on the magnetism unit and not worry about older work.
What I plan to do next:
Day 1: Begin work on first lab Home: continue work on lab
Day 2: Finish lab Home: Create data tables and organize data
Day 3: Work on report Home: Work on report
