Vocab Quiz

Be ready for the vocab quiz tomorrow. Key Terms are listed in the back of each chapter (4, 5, and 6).  I'm supplying the definition and your supplying the word.  I don't think you'll have any trouble with it; we've been using these terms the whole unit.  I thought you should get some credit for using the lingo.

Your only homework tonight is to study.

HW Wednesday, 12-12-12 :)

All classes

• Read 6.5-6.7

That finishes the chapter, so expect a short HW quiz tomorrow.  Bring your notebook & homework with you to class.

D, E, & G periods

• Read 6.1-6.4

All periods

• We'll continue to work on the Practice Problems in class.
• Expect a newton's 3rd law HW quiz when your class finishes the review questions.
• VOCAB QUIZ for chapters 4, 5, and 6 on Friday for all periods.  We've been using these terms the whole unit, but make sure you brush up on those bold words in the chapter.
• TEST is coming up on Tuesday for A & G periods, and Wednesday for D & E periods next week.  Check out the calendar.

HW Friday 12-7

A & G periods
Due Monday

• Lab report  -->RUBRIC<--
• Ch 5 Think 'n' Solves 35-44, pg 73
  There is an answer key/quiz online to check your answers as you go.

D & E periods

Due Tuesday

• Lab Report -->RUBRIC<--
• Think 'n' Solves will be due Tuesday as well, but you may to budget your time and get started now.

Lab Reports AG-Mon, DE-Tues

Lab reports will be due on

• Monday, 12-10 for G and A periods
• Tuesday, 12-11 for D and E periods

Tomorrow G and A periods will start working on the Think 'n' Solve problems in chapter 5.  All classes spent two full days in the computer lab working on their reports, but I'm sure there will still be a few lingering questions they will ask tomorrow.  Because of the rotating schedule, D and E periods will be working on the Think 'n' Solve problems on Monday.  These classes would not have had that extra day to ask questions about the lab, so in order to be fair and offer the same opportunity to both classes, D and E period's labs will be due on Tuesday, 12-11 instead.
