  2. Overview • Students receive schedules at the start of each unit. • Usually one lab and one test per unit. • One makeup test per six week grading period. • Aeries input after tests (usually). • Assignments will usually be from textbook or handouts.

  3. Physics Content • Physics curriculum is based on California State Standards. • First Semester • Kinematics • Newtonian Mechanics • Second Semester • Waves • Electricity & Magnetism

  4. Is your student spending too much time? • Should be 2.5 hours/week total. • If your student is spending significantly more time than that, have him/her come and talk with me. • This semester = more math (algebra, trig light) • Next semester = more conceptual

  5. Times Available • Tutorials are a great time for your student to come and ask questions. • As the year progresses, I may institute a “mandatory” tutorial visit for students with low test scores. If they don’t appear, you may see an email from me. • Test debrief during class and tutorial.
