You've had 4 days to do this homework. Make sure that this is done before lab starts next week:
1) We are preparing for a lab activity in which you will point a heat source light at two plastic trays containing water or sand, and record the temperature every few minutes. Prepare for our lab activity by writing a(n):

b) procedures-(steps you will follow during the lab); and
c) data table - a place to record information you get from this activity.
