Pupils Learn by Experiments in Science Courses The clink of test-tube, the crackle of controlled electricity, and the fumes of a chemical reaction, were clues that you were approaching Room 11, used for chemistry, physics and physical science at PHS. As you entered the room, you might have heard sounds of pleasure or disgust from the different lab groups where the classes did extensive experimentation. Chemistry students, dealing with the study of matter, learned its composition and the changes it can undergo. Noting the behavior of different elements, they became familiar with different types of chemical reactions, and learned to express these in formal equations. Besides the lab work, demonstrations were given, models were made and displayed, and outside reading was required. The sound of music was studied by physics students at PHS. In the physics course, the study of transformations of matter and energy, sounds of music were analyzed along with wave motion and simple machines. While studying light, heat, electricity, and radio-activity, the students used an exercise workbook, filled with experi- ments, performed both by the students and the instructor. Using a nonmathematical approach, physical science stu- dents studied meteorology, astronomy, geology and ocean- ography as well as the basic fundamentals of chemistry and physics. Oops! Too much! Says Susan Bradley to James Scholl os the seniors form Nitric Acid in chemistry class. Physics student Bruce Gaskins explains a weight-dis- placement experiment to classmates Larry Cohen, Dan White, and Dennis Wells. 22
