Term 2 Science Reflections
In term 2 we learnt about two topics: "kinetic particle of theory" and "measurements". In the beginning, I found it hard to keep track of all the measurement tools and the ways that they were used. The ways to use the Vernier Calipers and the Micrometer Screw Gauge were very hard to understand and I could not get the correct answers for the measurements, but I looked into various books for reference and understood the concepts finally. For the kinetic particle of theory topic, I understood it quite well and found concepts such as the three states of an object and the Brownian motion really interesting.
For the test in term 2 I prepared quite well and scored 38/45, one of the highest in class. I did great in the critical thinking section of the test, and despite a little careless mistakes, I did well overall. I am really pleased with my scores and I hope that I could continue this quality of work in term 3.
Here is a short video on how to read the measurement on vernier calipers:
And here is a picture of a micrometer screw gauge:

Lastly, a video on brownian motion:
In a virtual lab lesson, Mr. Sim showed us a similar video drawn up by a computer programme.
