So far in these first few weeks of Year 7 Science we have learnt how to use a Bunsen burner and even got our Bunsen burner licence. We have also done different types of measuring using things like measuring cylinders, stopwatches, thermometers and metre rulers. We have also learnt how we can be safe in the laboratory by not eating or drinking, not running, and wearing lab coats, safety glasses and gloves. This week we have learnt how to do bar and line graphs and we've just done our first practical experiment where we heated two different volumes of water and recorded the temperature every minute for 10 minutes. We are excited about our next unit called Living Things Living Together where we will work with a partner and explore classification and ecology for a particular Australian animal.
