Test moved to Friday

The Heat test is moved till Friday for all periods.
A and B periods voted today (sorry E, but I don't think you'll mind).  I'll be out both Thursday and Friday, and I thought you could use the day to help each study for the test.

Thursday you'll be in the lab; instructions will be on Its Learning.  There is an activity involving waves you would have started Friday.  If you choose to study for the test Thursday during class, that activity should be finished before Monday.  If you're diligent, you'll probably have time for both.
