See the write-up below from the NSCHS Math and Science E-Newsletter (December Issue)for information regarding our interdisciplinary activity with science the past week:
Honors Chemistry is partnering with AP World History as Ms. Queen and Dr. Moody look to reinforce Mr. Benschine's Scientific Revolution content. "This is a wonderful opportunity to bring history into science lab" says Dr. Moody, "and will highlight the timeframe of when some key scientific experiments took place, and also some of the challenges the scientists overcame". The classes will join together on Monday, December 6th and will include a short lecture and hands on experiments for the students. The students will take advantage of the work of Robert Boyle and make water boil at room temperature, and recreate the classic Evangelista Torricelli experiment and make a barometer.
