Exploratory Science - Physics Trimester 1, Chemistry Trimester 2, Human Anatomy & Biology Trimester 3

Class Tuesday & Thursday 8:15 to 10:00

Do homework as posted Monday, Wednesday, and weekends.

If no additional homework is posted, review you class notes, review the most recent text reading, or look up related material on the web.



Physics, Trimester 1

Grading will be based primarily on class discussion.  Occasional tests/quizzes may be given.  A summary of some type at the end of the course will be expected.

If you do not show understanding of the material in class discussion, you may be required to take and show your notes.

    Review the question pages in your folder to help you take notes. Make a section in your notebook for each lecture, write down what you remember, then leave space for discussion from class. Do the full 2 30-minute blocks, please. If you get through all of that and have time left, watch the rest of lecture 12. We stopped it at at 11 minutes, give or take.

    Go to Physics4Kids.com and look at the information in the Electricity and Magnetism section. Connect the information there to what you have been exposed to in the lecture series.

  11. Continue taking notes from Chem4Kids. Draw illustrations that are useful to help you learn (like the physical states of matter, and how adding energy changes them).

    Be sure to write up either answers to questions, or a mini-lab report for each physical investigation.

  13. In Class, Tuesday, 12/20

    Be sure you have 4 questions from each in-class 45 minute work session (should be 4 sets already).

    Be sure your notes/answers to questions, mini lab report, etc. are done from the 4 hands-on activities you did.

    Do one more 45 minute block of note taking and questions from chem4kids.

  14. Over break

    A 45-minute work session from Chem4Kids. Remember to write your 4 questions for that work session (will be the 6th set of questions).

    If you have not been writing your questions all along, you will have to write them on your own time because you have been given time to do so. It is quicker to write the questions when you do the note-taking.

    Do not spend more than 1 session on Plasmas or BE Condensates; they are concepts you don't need to know much about right now.
