REMINDERS - CHAPTER 5 TEST

•     Help Session at 8:15 a.m. in my classroom - come with your questions

DAILY AGENDA FOR 2/7/11:

•     Reviewed Gravity & Acceleration Packet
•     Reviewed for test

I recommend looking through the information on 1-D kinematics. http://www.physicsclassroom.com/Class/1DKin/

http://www.physicsclassroom.com/Class/1DKin/U1L2b.cfm

The online textbook http://my.hrw.com; Each student has a login and password.

I highly recommend the eActivity tab

• Visual Concepts (right hand side) will help students review key concepts and vocabulary
• Sample Problems (Middle of left side) will walk students through typical math problems seen in this chapter (Note there are 2 tabs once you click on this: See how its done and then do it yourself.
• Virtual Investigation (lower left side) will have students do an online "lab" and review/practice math skills.

Have a great afternoon and I will see you in the morning bright and early!
