Today we reviewed how to add vectors along a straight line. We then worked through questions #1-5 on page 165. Near the end of the class, students began copying a note on velocity. This note will be continued on Monday. There is no homework this weekend, so be sure to finish up any projects that you have due next week in your other classes!
On Thursday, students wrote the speed lab. Absent students will write this test on their first day back to class.

Today we attempted to take up the speed review, which was to be done as a preparation for Thursday's speed test. Unfortunately, only about 3 students had the problem sheet completed. The remainder of the students will need to prepare tonight for the test.

Today we worked on the speed review problems from the "Holiday Homework" sheet. These must be done for homework if not completed. These problems will prepare for Thursday's speed test!
Also, a few of you still need to complete and hand in your car ads. Those of you in that position will need to get the Incomplete Assessment form signed and brought back tomorrow.

Today we took up the chemistry unit test. We also discussed the fact that there is really only two weeks of classes left before exam week begins. Students should be intensely focused on the work ahead, studying for exams, and booking time off of work and other social activities.

Good morning SNC2P students, happy snow day! If you would like to submit your car ad electronically to me, write me a comment through this blog. Include your name and e-mail address. I will then send you my e-mail address so you can attach your ad as an attachment, that way I can mark it over the holiday. Otherwise, I am expecting that everyone who has not already handed in their ad will do so on the first day back to class on Jan 5th. Also, you SHOULD try to do the physics review you were given yesterday. You will have a test on Wed. Jan 7th so you will want to review those problems before the test, and I would suggest with two weeks off school, this would be the best time to do that review!
Have a merry Christmas and a safe and restful holiday. See you on Jan 5th.
On Thursday, students learned how to add vectors that lie along a straight line. You will need to know who to find resultant displacements by both the scale diagram and math methods. We will continue to look at these methods in the new year.
