PHYSICS: Here’s our look at a couple of the Circular Motion 1 worksheet problems – hammer on a chain and the carnival ride. How are you doing with these? Starting to put everything together?

HON CHEMISTRY: So what do you think about reaction stoichiometry? Today you’ll practice what you learned yesterday with an assignment from the online textbook. Don’t forget there are also textbook pages here on the class website – check the tabs at the top.

Don’t forget to use the keys – and the roadmaps! And here are some answers so you can check your work.

HON CHEMISTRY: Today you get a head start on the next chapter – and you get to see why it’s so important to be able to write and balance chemical equations! Interact with the vodcast! Answer out loud, take notes, make a list of any questions you have. For Friday, you’ll do the “homework” that usually goes with that lesson.

In the meanwhile, don’t forget that you’ll have a test pretty soon after we get back. Check the syllabus for the date – and continue studying and practicing for that!

So what do you think about reaction stoichiometry? Were you able to apply what you remembered about moles from earlier this year? Don’t forget the keys! Now all you need is some practice and you’ll have it down pat!!

PHYSICS: Happy Snowpocalypse! Today you get a head start on the next chapter. Here’s a short look at torque and another kind of equilibrium. Interact with the vodcast! Answer out loud, take notes, make a list of any questions you have. For Friday, you’ll do the “homework” that usually goes with that lesson.

In the meanwhile, don’t forget that you’ll have a test pretty soon after we get back. Check the syllabus for the date – and continue studying and practicing for that! And if I’m not mistaken – there’s a lab report due soon? Hmmmmm….

So how’s the balance in your life right now? 😉

Happy Snowpocalypse! Yay, you get to do chemistry and physics in your pajamas Thursday and Friday!! Sipping a cup of coffee or hot chocolate, watching a chemistry or physics lesson online – it doesn’t get much better than that!!

The lessons/assignments for each class will be posted by date and class like they usually are. For Thursday, you’ll watch a vodcast. Interact with the vodcast! Answer out loud, take notes, make a list of any questions you have. For Friday, you’ll do the “homework” that usually goes with that lesson.

In the meanwhile, don’t forget that you’ll have a test pretty soon after we get back – so continue studying for that!

I love you guys! Stay safe and warm!!

PHYSICS: Collisions – they’re all around us and they all obey the law of conservation of momentum. Here’s more specific information about the proper way to differentiate and name them.

Great job with the conceptual review and setting up the problems! As you practice tonight, be sure and check for connections between the conservation of momentum and the conservation of energy. 🙂

REJOICE, a Savior is born!!

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!!
