Chemistry 11-26-12 Chapter 7 Test Overview & Help Session

CHEMISTRY: I hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving! Now back to the real world. Good luck as you continue studying for the test! Here’s the overview we did today. Also, did you find the Chapter 7 Stuff to Know sheet?

First priority – make sure that you have memorized EVERYTHING. Then, go to sciencegeek.net and make sure you can write and name chemical formulas. Practice, practice, practice!!!

Next start practicing the different kinds of problems – do at least three of each one of them. And also try those on sciencegeek.net. Another great place to practice concepts and application of concepts is the online textbook and the review games that are there.

One last help session – Wednesday morning, 7:15ish A.M. Good luck – I’ll be praying for you! You can do it!!.

Physics 11-26-12 Potential Energy & the Work Energy Theorem

PHYSICS: See?! I wasn’t kidding about the balancing rocks movement!
🙂

Here’s the lecture from Monday on work and potential energy. And here’s something to think about for tomorrow – why is the first hill of a roller coaster always the highest? Btw – homework for tonight is just to see if you can redo the problems in 11 – 25. We’ll make up for lost time tomorrow!

Hon Chemistry 11-26-12 Fission & Fusion & Test!

HON CHEMISTRY: This thumbnail pic isn’t sending any subliminal messages about tomorrow’s test, is it?!? Here’s the last of the info on fission and fusion. Be careful and don’t take the test for granted. It will cover the beginning part of chapter 3 (through average atomic mass), chapter 21, and you will also have a set of chemical formulas to write and name.

How’s your own “stuff to know & know how to do” list coming? Watch the vodcast for some hints, or check out last Tuesday’s post. Could you use some extra practice? Help session tomorrow morning – 7:15ish A.M. And finally, practice everything! And did I mention, PRACTICE!! I’ll be praying for you!
