Week+6

=Welcome to Gateway to Technology - Magic of Electrons - Period 2=

Tech Plan for Week of February 7 - February 11 (Week 6)
This week we'll complete our first unit on the properties of Electricity as we investigate static and current electricity. We should move into our next unit on Electromotive force at the end of the week as we investigate electricity's capacity to do work.
