Latest Updates

Math A30 - In math A30 we have ripped through the second unit on Data Analysis. On Friday, Sept. 24 we are writing our culminating assignment.
We have started chapter 3 which deals with Functions. This chapter will have a strong focus on our understanding of lines from Math 10 and parabolas from Math 20. This chapter will take us close to 3 weeks.

Math 20 - we have been on unit 3 (our 2nd) for a while. The unit is Rational Expressions. It really relies on our ability to factor, so practice, practice, practice if you are still having trouble factoring. If you are feeling behind or swamped, please follow these steps:
  • ask questions in class
  • make sure to finish your homework and assignments on time
  • ask for help out of class

I am more than willing to assist you, but please I urge you to find the courage to ask in class. You are not the only one having troubles, and if you ask you will be on your way to fixing the problems. Please do not remain silent.

Physics 20 - Why the Fizz has come and gone, which is a relief for most. We are well into our Heat unit. We will be exploring a lot more applications of heat and how this physics can explain many things in our everyday world. An exam is still a ways off ~1.5 weeks.

Physics 30 - we have our first exam on Tuesday, Sept. 29. The exam covers our study of kinematics. The topics are periodic motion, distance/displacement, speed/velocity, acceleration, and OF COURSE all the graphs that go with it!
