This week the AH class is working on Topic 9 ‘Polarisation’, the final topic of Unit 2 ‘Quanta and Waves’. It is hoped to start the final unit of the course ‘Electromagnetism’ next week. Hard copies of Electromagnetism Summary Notes, Tutorial Questions, Solutions to Tutorial Questions and the Scholar Study Guide will be posted to pupils by the end of this week. The Waves Topic Test and the Quanta and Waves Unit Test will be carried out during the next two or three weeks.

S3 Chemistry
S3 Chemists will be starting a new topic called bonding. This week pupils will be focusing on Covalent bonding. All classes have been set work on teams and have a video to watch, PowerPoint presentations to work through and there will be a quiz set at the end of the week to check pupil understanding and provide feedback on how they are doing.
On Thursday period 2 there will be a live tutorial session for pupils to attend. We will summarise the learning so far and answer any questions the pupils may have.
