AP Calc Based Physics 

Daily, students will be taking a prior year's AP Free Response Test for a grade.  They were given a schedule

last week containing all the content areas to study for the next day's test.  The test is timed (45 minutes) just like the AP exam on Monday, May 10.  The next morning, during the 7am review time, they will grade their test to determine how they did, and evaluating the test for areas they need to focus further preparation.

Calculus Based Physics

We will finish Light on April 28th.  They will have their light lab practical on Thursday, April 29 and Friday April 30

Science Inquiry

Students will receive a Conservation of Mechanical Energy Problem Set to complete in class on Friday, April 23.  This is also posted on my website in the SMARTboard notes files as HW_042210_Energy as a word document.  Students will be given the entire period to complete this in class on Friday.   Monday we will have an inclass review.  Tuesday, April 27 is the test.

Wednesday, April 28 students will begin Circular Motion.
