Physics is a laboratory based course in which mathematical laws that govern the universe will be discovered or used to verify scientific investigations. Students will be expected to apply many geometric and algebraic principles to solve many of the problems presented in Physics. Students should possess good observation skills, be curious about the world around them, and most importantly, be willing to seek the answers to questions they may have regarding the realm of the physical world. The class is organized around laboratory work and students will be required to complete reports for laboratory exercises. The student's grade will be determined by tests, quizzes, and laboratory reports and written work from the textbook.
Students are to bring a separate notebook and folder designated for science class.
Past assignments and tests are kept in the folder as a record of completion. The class is organized around the laboratory exercises. Students complete written laboratory reports. Grades will be determined by test results, quizzes, worksheets, laboratory reports, and written work from the textbook. It is required that students keep a separate notebook and folder for homework, lab reports, and tests.
