Remaining Homework Assignments

Physics Peeps!
We are now officially into Regents review! All remaining homework assignments are labelled with letters. ALL homeworks are handouts, due dates are posted on here and www.engrade.com. All handouts will be given out in class and extras will be left in a folder on my office door (room 203). Please keep up with the remaining homeworks!

Science Lab.

Lab is a required part of this course. Students who do not meet the lab requirment will not take the regents and risk failing the course: YOU WILL NOT GET CREDIT FOR PHYSICS IF YOU DO NOT PASS LAB.

A number of people did not hand in many labs. Starting next week, your parents will be contacted regarding these labs. You need to complete and hand in all lab reports on time. This is unacceptable.

Go on www.engrade.com and make up what is missing...now.

Some items to note for class & life...

Greetings fearless Physics Peeps. Some vital info:

1. Homework is updated (with due dates) below
2. Engrade is completely updated with ALL your work
3. We have an exam on Thursday 3/20. It is all multiple choice.
4. Six Flags is 5/2 & $70, which includes: luxury bus transportation, admission to the park, all-you-can-eat buffet lunch, & on-board bus entertainment. What a deal. Auditions for the "Bus Show" are TBA. Please start preparing your stellar song, skit, comedic routine, etc.
5. There is no school on Friday, 3/21.
6. Page & Pellegrino have five weeks til Freeport. Woo-Hoo.

Have a pleasant & safe weekend. As always, look for the physics in the world around you...

Do Now Quizzes

Greetings Physics Peeps. Due to the overwhelming number of latecomers to class, we are going to have Do Now quizzes each day starting after vacation. I guess people don't think the first 10 minutes of class are important, well they are now! It's not a punishment, really, think of it as an easy way to bring up your grades. When the lateness stops (everyone in class before the late bell), so will the quizzes. Sooooo....if everyone is on time, no quiz! This is fair, no?

Enjoy the snow.

Finals are coming!

Our class final exam is scheduled for Thursday 1/17/08.

We will continue our review up until the exam. All previous homeworks have been erased, the last remaining homework assignments have been posted below. All remaining homework assignments are from the Prentice Hall review book. Each day we will review different topics on the exam:

We are using Barron's "Let's Review Physics" in class for review, all topics can be found in the book. You are not taking these books home yet, but they will be assigned next semester.

Thursday 1/10/08, there is tutoring period 5 in 203. There may be additional tutoring sessions next week during lunch & after school. Please check in my office (203).
