Mechanical Systems Unit Test

Hello Grade 8's!

It's that time of year where the unit is coming to a close. We will be having a Kahoot! Quiz on Thursday, January 23 on the science topics covered since the winter break. This includes gears, mechanical advantage, speed ratio, work and efficiency.

As mentioned in class, this upcoming Monday, January 27 we will be having our Mechanical Systems Unit Test. In addition to the content from the Kahoot! Quiz, this will cover simple machines and complex machines. The test will also cover the content on evaluating machines which we will cover at the end of the week.
