Week of April 1, 2019

This Week in AP Physics
On Monday we’ll take our unit test over
magnetism and electromagnetism. Then we will continue to explore waves and sound with lots of sweet notes, problems, demos, and a really fun sound lab. Will we finish it all this week? Probably not, but we will be close, so we’ll test the week of April 8. Reminder: Please begin to work steadily through your online unit 16 lessons on modern physics. Also April is the beginning of the end, so I recommend starting to review units 1-3 this week. The AP Physics 1 test is May 7, and the AP Physics 2 test is May 10. We’re almost home, folks!

This Week in Physics
All sections are at different points, so please be sure to read carefully. First period: Your
goal set 1 quiz is Monday, and third period, yours is Tuesday. Eleventh period: You did this on Friday – good job! Everyone should have taken notes on video 3 from unit 3 on gravity and planetary orbits by the start of class on Monday. We’ll be finishing this unit this week with an assignment and an online lab and will most likely test on Thursday or Friday.

Week of March 25, 2019

This Week in AP Physics
You will be thrilled to know that we will finish
unit 12 on magnetism by the end of the week, so expect a test on Thursday or Friday. Yay! We will also do a mini-lab that most people have a lot of fun with. Yay! P.S. Be sure to check out the pictures on our unit 12 page. They’re pretty rad.

This Week in Physics
We will finish unit 6 on circular motion and gravity by the end of the week. For Monday please take notes on
video 2 from unit 6. Goal set 1 is due for first period on Monday and third period on Tuesday. All classes will take a quiz over goal set 1 on Tuesday. When assigned please take notes on video 3 from unit 6. We will do assignment 2 together in class followed by goal set 2. Additionally we will be completing our circular motion lab. A lab report for this lab will be due as announced.

Week of March 11, 2019

This Week in AP Physics
Again we will continue to work on electric circuits by exploring circuit geometry with more notes, more tremendously great problems to solve, and more sweet homework problems! (Remember packet one of the tremendously great problems to solve is due on Monday! Yay!) We’ll also keep working on our lab! Then we’ll take a test! So good!

This Week in Physics
First period will finish assignment 3 and goal set 3 in class on Monday. Everyone else should have both of these done by the start of class on Monday. This week we will conduct the Impulse-Momentum Theorem Lab and will take our test over our momentum unit.

Week of March 4, 2019

This week we will only have a few class periods together due to testing and parent-teacher conferences, so this will be very sparse.

This Week in AP Physics
We will continue to work on
electric circuits by exploring circuit geometry of basic circuits with notes, a set of tremendously great problems to solve, and some sweet homework problems.

This Week in Physics
Unless you are in first period, if you have not taken notes on
video 3 from our unit on momentum, please do so by the start of class on Monday. We will work through this material, do assignment 3, and will take a quiz over goal set 3, which covers the impulse-momentum theorem. Expect your unit test on Monday or Tuesday of the following week. Yay!!!
