The LOOOOONG Weekend

Hope everyone enjoys the four days of fun!

Honors Physics discussed the scope of physics, the use of models and the scientific method to evaluate physical phenomena, reviewed unit conversion and began a discussion of accuracy and precision. Pretty much review all around. On Tuesday, we'll unravel the mysteries of significant figures and scientific notation.

Physics B completed their introductory unit by connecting precision to the use of significant figures and scientific notation. Most people don't realize that there is a real reason we use those two reporting properties - they help indicate the precision of measurements or indicate the precision to which measurements must be made. On Tuesday, we start on 1-dimensional motion.

Physics F discussed their lab activity and then moved into taking a look at the faces of physics and the nature of measurements and the metric system. We'll practice unit conversions on Tuesday and engage in a discussion of accuracy and precision.

Physical Science also discussed their lab activity, which was followed by an overview of ways to categorize science and the role of models and the scientific method in physics. We'll briefly review the scientific method on Tuesday before moving on to measurements.

Homework

None for anyone!
