Hello families,
I just wanted to provide a few updates for my two science classes this year. I am teaching Biology and Physics this year and have broken down the updates below.
Biology Update:
- We are finishing up Unit 2 in the coming days
- Some topics covered: Atoms, Water, Carbon, Chemical Reactions
- This week we will review Unit 2 and take the Unit 2 test
- The hope is to have Unit 2 graded and on the Quarter 1 report card - this is dependent on how I feel students are grasping the end of the unit material
Physics Update (Similar to Biology):
- We are finishing up Unit 2 in the coming days
- Math has been essential and will continue to be necessary to understand and apply concepts for the year
- Other topics covered: Vectors, Graphing, Acceleration
- The review needs will be based on student feedback and heavily intensive on graphing and acceleration problems.
As always please feel free to email me with any questions!
