Today was a hands on day in science class, a chance for students, in pairs of two, to work with a triple beam balance and come up with data, then to put it into an excel file on the smartboard. Here is a sample screenshot of the data.
Coming soon . . . the file won't upload at school :(
This process went very well--it was an excellent way to learn how to use a triple beam in preparation for next week's lab activity.
