REJOICE, a Savior is born!!
Well, exams are over, grades are in and PowerSchool has been updated. Double check your grades!
I pray that you’ll have a wonderful, restful, and joyful Christmas break. Thank you for your hard work and diligence this semester. You are the greatest students in the world!
I love you! Merry Christmas!!
God bless you as you study for your chemistry, honors chemistry, and physics exams! How are you studying? Best advice? Practice, practice, PRACTICE! Be active in studying – don’t just read over the material. Review games on the online textbook, reworking old homework problems, re-working those flash cards you’ve made – all good. Watching vodcasts of old lectures might not hurt either!
Chemistry Exam Help Session Thursday morning, 7:15 A.M. for Regular Chemistry
IMPORTANT – Bring your exam review packet (and textbook, if you checked one out) to the chemistry room before you go to your exam room!
Here are the room assignments for Thursday’s exam:
Chemistry 1 Rm. 307 (Mrs. Berryhill’s room)
Chemistry 2 Rm. 306 (Mrs. Fox’s room)
Chemistry 3 Rm. 309 (Coach Gray in Mrs. Maynard’s room)
Chemistry 4 Rm. 308 (Dr. Mackey in Coach Ainstworth’s room)
Hon Chemistry Rm. 311 (Ms. Hopkin’s room)
Hon Physics Rm. 304 (Mrs. Carlisle’s room)
Don’t forget to bring your completed exam review packets to our classroom first thing when you come on Thursday. I’m praying for you!!
“Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness.” Isaiah 41:10
CHEMISTRY: God bless you as you study! Here’s our GREAT overview of the test from today. Also, did you find AND EDIT the Chapter 7 Stuff to Know sheet? Use it as a road map for your studying, but make sure you watch the vodcast to know what from the chapter will not be on the test. I know it seems like a lot, but you can do it!
Don’t forget the free Ch 7 Part 1 Practice Test on PowerSchool learning. It has some great practice for the test!!
First priority – make sure that you have memorized EVERYTHING. Then, practice!!! Go to sciencegeek.net and make sure you can write and name chemical formulas. Practice, practice, practice!!! Then start practicing the different kinds of problems – do at least three of each one of them. And also try those on sciencegeek.net. That’s always some good practice.
I’ll be praying for you! You can do it!!
PHYSICS: God bless you as you study for your test!! Here’s our conceptual review from Wednesday. Below that (when it renders) is/will be the help session from this morning – a conceptual beginning and then a the bow and arrow problem

Wednesday morning help session:
PHYSICS: Now this is a lot of grocery carts! Here’s an old look at #18 and #19 from the Chapter 5 Worksheet 2. Would have been helpful, I think, if they had told you at it was at constant velocity.
Help session tomorrow morning at 7:30ish – not 3:30ish (!!!) A.M. God bless you as you continue to prepare for the test! I’m praying for you!!!

HON CHEMISTRY: Okay, maybe balancing equations isn’t exactly like this, but…..
Are you starting to get the hand of balancing equations? Don’t forget to check the formulas first!
God bless you as you practice for your quiz tomorrow. Notice I said practice! You’ve got this! P. S. Don’t forget to check the formulas first!
CHEMISTRY REMOTE STUDENTS: Monday you’ll switch and watch the lesson below today and take the quiz tomorrow.
So… how big a bucket do you think we’d need to hold a mole of frogs? 🙂
Nope, not the furry brown creature that burrows underground, it’s a whole different thing! Here’s the lecture for Tuesday (that you’ll watch on Monday) on moles, mass, and Avogadro’s number. I still say he has a cool name… 🙂
HON CHEMISTRY: So tell me again – how do you know if a chemical reaction has occurred? And how could you record that for someone? Here’s the lecture from Friday on balancing chemical equations.
Here’s another hint – not necessarily a good idea to try to make your own blue flame thrower! Click here to watch the Periodic Videos Blue Flame Thrower Video

PHYSICS: Great job on the horsepower lab. Not so much noise this time! I’m thinking maybe you don’t have as many physics phrustrations to work out?!? 🙂
So how many horsepower do you have? You found Watts? So how many horsepower is that? Hmmmm…..
Here’s the super short lecture from today on power – beginning with #46 from last night’s homework. Now go forth and conquer the power problems!
