Homework for 12/13

Tonight I'd like you to spend some time listening to music that makes you happy. For me....

"Call me a relic call me what you will,
Say I'm old fashioned say I'm over the hill.
Today's music ain't got the same soul,
I like that old time rock and roll.

Still like that old time rock and roll,
That kind of music just soothes my soul,
I reminisce about the days of old,
With that old time rock and roll."

Homework 12/04

Study for your test (first semester final exam). Hopefully you've been studying this past week and haven't put it off to the last minute. The exam covers motion and forces but will focus more on forces (balanced, unbalanced, friction, gravity, momentum, Newton's Laws).

By-the-way, the bellwork questions for the past couple of weeks were taken from the test you'll take tomorrow.

Don't forget Science in the News for Wednesday.
