Merry Christmas from Room 6

Each year the fall term seems to pass faster than the last. I think that’s why the holidays have become so important to me because no matter how busy I’ve been I always get some time to reflect on the past year, put things into perspective, and most importantly take some time to be with my friends and family.

I’d like to wish all of my students and their families a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. May you find joy in the time we have to spend with each other now and in the year to come.

Circuits Practice Test

...and so in the last class before the festivities began the physics teacher gave to his students...

Some physics homework!

The link above will take you to the answer key. I wrote it up in a hurry so there are pretty much just the answers, but it should hold you until we see each other in the new year.

Happy Holidays!

Functions

Today we learned of a new type of relation called a function. The notes should explain most of it, but be sure to read the examples in your module.

When we come back we'll be looking into something called an arithmetic sequence and series. Take a short read of those lessons before you return.

Power in Electric Circuits

The link above (the title) will take you to today's notes. In planning for the holiday's I will have two old tests for you to work on (Chapters 14 & 15), and if you would read 6.5 before we will be in good shape come January and the dash to the final exam.

Have a great holiday.

December 15

Hope everyone stayed warm this morning...

Physics

Pre-Calc 20-you'll be reviewing today for your test tomorrow. If you have questions leave me a comment below the post or an email and I'll try to get back to you before tomorrow.

Pre-Calc 30-the longest video ever!

A bit of a catch up day...

The link above will take you to the key for the Chapter 13 practice test you did for me last week. Once you're done with that give chapter 14 a read (yes almost all of it-up to 14.8). Most classes find this chapter pretty straight forward and I thought that we'd try and tidy it up this week.

See you tomorrow.

Rational Functions

The link above will take you to a website called "The Math Page". It's generally an excellent web site regarding almost every topic in high school math. On this topic its not bad (I would have included more graphs).

If the video isn't enough, take a look at the link above (click on the title).
