August 2014 - Ready to Start a New Year!

Hello Classes,

This year brings some new elements for us! For the first week of school, no need to worry about supplies. But, if you are planning ahead, plan on having a binder, pencils, and a calculator for physics class!

See you soon!

• 20% projects are wrapping up with presentations after April vacation. We will have 1-2 more days to finalize your work. After that, we will use "20% Days" to do MCAS review.
• Working on Circuits still in class - series vs. parallel  work will continue Wednesday-Friday this week.

SENIORS! This is a short quarter for us! Do not forget to hand in work - the end of the quarter will be here before you know it!

Conceptual Physics (period 2)

• We are finishing up Sound and moving into Light waves beginning Wednesday!

Senior Honors Physics (period 5 and 7)

• Wrapping up circuitry! We will do one more lab on electromagnetic induction with a generator. Then we will be moving back to Fluids before break.

Period 3 and 4: Quiz on Chapter 7 (Heat and Temperature) on Friday! Review guides were given out today. All formulas will be given.

March 24, 2014

Period 2 -- We will be delving into Waves beginning tomorrow, although there will be a culminating activity on electricity and circuits, so don't forget about that!

Period 3 -- No class today; tomorrow we will work on Specific Heat Capacity. Then we are ready for a ch. 7 Quiz!

Period 4 - - Specific Heat Capacity worksheet today -- complete for homework if you didn't complete it already! Then we are ready for a ch. 7 Quiz. No class tomorrow, so we will discuss timing in class on Wednesday.

Period 5 and 7 -- We need to complete the electric circuits lab and do some reading in Ch. 18. We will finish up on some electric circuits stuff, and then delve into waves before I lose you in May! Yikes! So little time!
