Welcome to Intro Physics!

Welcome parents, students, the Medway community, random blog searchers who stumbled across this to the MEDWAY PHYSICS BLOG!  I can't wait to get started! There is a lot to talk about, but we'll just start with the basics.

WELCOME to the BLOG

This blog will serve as a window for parents and the community to know what is going on here in Intro Physics. We will also utilize It's Learning, a more comprehensive class website, but more on that later. If you have a Google account, feel free to follow, or subscribe by entering your email at the right.

FIRST HOMEWORK

Your first homework assignment of the year is simple:
Two questions:
  1. Can you access the internet from home?
  2. Tell me something fun about yourself. Why are you awesome?
Email me your response: jjasinski@medway.k12.ma.us
Subject: Intro Physics (your period)
  321-03 is A period
  321-04 is B period
  321-01 is E period

WHAT DO I NEED?

CLICK HERE for the class syllabus.  We'll go through details later, but if you're going shopping tonight, this course requires the usual suspects:
  • basic calculator (square root function)
  • something to write with (no red pens, please)
  • something to write on
  • something to organize papers.
I leave the details up to you. Some people like to keep a notebook and a folder; others would rather keep a binder with loose leaf paper and 3 hole punch everything. Use whatever organizational strategies best suit you.

More info to come.  I'm looking forward to a great year!
