  1. Mrs. McMahonBasic Physics http://www.vcsd.k12.ny.us//Domain/252 my webpage on the school website

  2. The Classroom • Laboratory activities: Interactive, frequent, part of the instruction. • Computer Webquests and research • Instruction: Notes from overhead, powerpoint or as advanced organizer notes; computer dvds; website access; worksheets and Physics Reference Tables http://www.p12.nysed.gov/assessment/reftable/physics-rt/physics06tbl.pdf .

  3. My Intention • This is an elective science course. • Physics, even at the non-Regents level, is math-based. • Your students have indicated they wish to use this course to be better prepared for college. • They want to become stronger in the mathematics and skills of science, and be independent learners.

  4. The text book will stay at home!

  5. Use a binder with looseleaf for notes and a marble notebook for labs

  6. Quizzes are 1-2 times per week; tests once each unit and/or month. • Homework:Generally a few nights a week; either worksheets, out of the textbook, or castlelearning. • Should be posted on my webpage.

  7. Getting Assistance • I am available post-session Tuesday through Thursday in room 215. • I am also available periods 5 and 9, but the students must make arrangements with me ahead of time. • There are Honor Society students who are willing to tutor during students’ free periods. Arrangements must be made.

  8. Grading Policy • This year I will employ a weighted average • Failed quizzes: may sometimes be made up during post-session. • Failed or poorly done tests may be retaken IF the student comes and writes out meaningful corrections within 5 days.

  9. Sound Resonance
