Bag of Change Lab Science 9
PREFACE:
In this lab activity, you will mix 3 unknown substances together in a bag and observe the changes that occur. There will be both chemical changes and physical changes. Observation skills are crucial for this lab investigation. Watch for changes in state (solid, liquid, gas), colour (use noun-colour description), volume (mL), temperature, and anything else you can detect. Do not smell any of this substances please.
MATERIALS: PLEASE NOTE WHMIS LABELS AND ACCORDING SAFETY

50 mL graduated cylinders
Plastic bag

Detect any temperature changes with your hand.
It’s a little warm
After 2 minutes thoroughly record any new observations.
It seemed to produce a gas
In the space below add at least two photographs of your zip-lock bag.
When you are finished, wash all the chemicals down the drain and rinse out the plastic bag. Discard the UNSEALED bag in the correct discard. DO NOT take off your goggles until everyone in the room has completed the lab.

Unit 1 Summary
BEDMAS INFORMATIONAL VIDEO
HCE 9 – English Write
When I look at the picture, I see a small green bird on the right side and 5 dark birds on the left side of the picture. I also see 3 of the dark birds are holding signs with racist words, probably directed at the small bird. I can also see some emotion from the bird on the far left when he is even able to look which tells me that he has no respect for the small bird or doesn’t care. I think that the sign that is telling the small bird to go back to Africa, is the artist’s way of telling us that he is representing racism through birds because there are different types of birds all over the world. I think that through the signs the artist connects the fact that birds migrate to humans immigrating to other places being used as a twist to make the picture more cartoony or interesting. I also think that the author made the background darker and the background brighter where the birds are as a tool to lower the mood and make each side look different. I can also see the artist incorporating the theme of inclusivity using worms as a way to symbolize how racism can prevent the small bird from getting any worms. This makes me feel sad because of what is happening to the small bird. But I also feel happy that artists are finding new and interesting ways to symbolize racism instead of just plain old pictures. After looking at this picture, some lingering feelings I had were of how amazing it was that the artist was able to create a very interesting and cartoony picture while also being able to add in small things to tell the person looking at it a message.
Grammar Video Project – “Run-On Sentences”
Featured
Paragraph
Our topic for English is “run-on sentences”. First, we asked, “what is a run-on sentence”? A run-on sentence is two complete sentences or ideas that are incorrectly joined. An easier way to think about it is to imagine that you go diving underwater. You use sentences to dive further down, and you occasionally need to stop for air. Otherwise, you’ll drown. As you get deeper and deeper into your sentence, you must take a breath, or what’s called “adding punctuation.” So how do you fix your punctuation so you won’t drown? It’s pretty simple once you get the hang of it. You can fix your breathing intervals where punctuations should be located by knowing where an idea stops, or when you feel lightheaded. It can be called a “run-on sentence” or just a plain mess of writing, a sentence without any proper punctuation is just confusing. If the reader can’t understand your writing, then your meaning is lost. In our video, we made up a lot of examples to practice just to make sure you understand the concept. Here is an example: “I have to go to the store I need to buy bread.” Here there are two independent clauses with no punctuation. Clause One: I have to go to the store. Clause Two: I have to buy bread. So the correct version would be “I have to go to the store. I need to buy bread.” Now the two sentences function as separate sentences.

Indigenous Exploration “Inacarceration”
Reflection
– Your experiences creating this assignment.
My groups entire expiernce was very tedious and tiring because of the many obstacles that we faced such as one of us not taking the work seriously so it created a work environment where some of us had to do more then others
– Your group’s path in researching the topic.
To Research are topic we started using links Ms. Henderson showed us but overtime start mainly focusing on two websites Gale and CBC news. we used Gale for more of the statisticle parts like how many of the current prison population is Indigenous and CBC to get more of the stories and points of view on like a story of the protested getting excecive force used on pipline protesters.
– Obstacles or items you learnt in recording.
During recording we faced many issues such as managing are time during recording which caused us to repeatedly have to add on to are writing and trying to talk slower. We also struggled with trying to get everybody in one place to record because we forgot to get the contact information of one are members. Another Issues we had was trying to get all of are members to cooperate together. After finishing this assignment because of all of these issues I learned to always get contact info of all of my group members ,to remember to manage my time better and to make sure I chose group members that I will actually work well with
– Reflection on one of the below core competency questions.
1: Critical Thinking … How does your artifact tie in with what you have learned before? How has your thinking changed? What made it change?
This artifact ties in with a past project where I had to create a powerpoint about a specific places indigenous people and how the have been affected by the non indigenous people. My thinking has changed from thinking that when people talk about indigenous incarceration there only talking about the residential schools to both residential schools and current day incarceration. My thinking changed because of the fact that there is alot of people talking about it and all of the crazy issues that I learned during this project like the fact that
Since 2010, the incarceration of non-Indigenous people went down by 13%, while the incarceration of Indigenous people went up by 43%.
