Beakman's World

This is a funny show and it's about gases.  Hope you enjoy!

We think..

Here are the results by class of the we think activity.  Remember the bottle started out flexible and then grew harder to squeeze as the fizz keeper was pumped. If we opened the cap it sounded like a new soda bottle had just been opened.
3rd period - Pressure increased. Most think volume remained the same and that temperature did too. (A few think temp changed and increased.) The number of moles increased.
4th period - Pressure was increased. Volume is split between increasing and staying the same. One group votes for temperature increasing and number of moles increasing while one says these stay the same.

7th period - Pressure was increased. This is the only one we agree one, but most students think number of moles increased. For volume and temperature some think increase and some that it didn't change.

What do you think now?

SHS students read from First Circle

On Tuesday, September 20, 2011, at 6:00 P.M., the Hub City Bookshop downtown on Morgan Square will host a reading of poetry, short fiction, and creative nonfiction by writers from Spartanburg High School who had work published in the 2011 edition of First Circle, the school's award-winning literary magazine. As many of you know, our students have won statewide first-place awards for their writing in each of the last three years, so this will be a good opportunity for everyone to see what the excitement's all about. The reading is free and open to the public.
