Senior, Logan Griffith, demonstrated how to replace the push rods and gasket in a lawnmower to sophomore Summer Eldridge. Logan is very handy in automechanics, he is extremely valued in the shop. #industrialarts #thetrojanway #elmwood322
In 1784 George Atwood created an elevator-like 'machine' to determine the acceleration due to gravity, g. We replicated this historic experiment today in our quest to find 'the best method to determine the actual value of g.' Some got very close to 9.8m/s^2, while others were not so close. That's ok, because error analysis is part of the discussion.
This is a Beer's Law plot of Red-40 in Gatorade. Students created reference samples and data was collected using a Spec-20 spectrophotometer. This serves as an analogue to how breathalyzers work. This data is interesting to discuss, as the R^2 value, which suggests how predictive the trendline based on the data, allows for us to talk about 'reasonable doubt.' This R^2 value, .949, suggests that the trend line can be used to predict Red-40 with a high degree of confidence. Generally, in the physical sciences, an R^2 of .90 or above is expected. We will call this experiment a success.
Music Appreciation has been working on composing original compositions using the music fundamentals they have been studying. Both students did a great job!
We will Celebrate our 4 senior Cross Country runners: Silas, Hason, Logan, and Calvin at the home football game on Friday night at 6:30. Please come out early to the game and help us honor these great runners.
Thank you @ViewFromWestPod and Godfathers Pizza of Silvis.

The 7th graders have begun the assembly of their skimmers! This is a very tedious process and Mr. Grant likes to say the way you assemble your skimmer teaches him a lot about you. Soon we will be ready to launch! #elmwood322 #industrialarts #thetrojanway
Junior, Aubrey Wilkins demonstrated how to do a grooved-butt weld in todays Welding 1 class. This is the most difficult and challenging weld that they have done so far this year. Aubrey is an excellent welder, and she has used her knowledge to assist in teaching the class. Her help is extremely appreciated in the shop. #elmwood322 #thetrojanway #industrialarts
