9/01/11

Announcements: Quiz tomorrow (9/2)
Homework: Measurement 3-6, Lab due Friday (9/2), Measurement lab questions
Overview: Today in class we got started on Measurement Lab 1. We grabbed a meter stick, a ruler, a metal bar, a paper clip, a pencil, a nail, and a plastic brick. We measured our height in meters, did some conversion with m-km and for every km, there are 100m. We then measured the square/rectangular object's dimensions and recored each measurement and multiplied each side by each other and that gave us the volume which is always followed by the units (cubed). We then took out the graduated cylinders and found the volume of things that are harder to find like the nail. Finally we used the electronic scales in the back to measure the mass of each object.
