CowEyeball Dissection
- All went well, and please in the future if someone does something dangerous or unsafe tell the teacher. It is better for someone to get in trouble but be healthy, than to ignore the problem.

Chapter 1 Test
Due to the few number of classes remaining until the end of the year, we are going to skip Chapte 2 & 3 ( for the time being), and move forward to Unit 2: Optics. We will be looking at waves, light, mirrors, and performing a cow eyeball dissection.
With however many classes remaining at the end of the year, we will fit in as much of Chapter 2 & 3 as possible.
Wave Notes
Slightly Advanced, but good website on Wave Anatomy (Parts of the Wave)
http://www.physicsclassroom.com/Class/waves/u10l2a.cfm
Read pages134 to 138
