Welcome Back! Universe Redo Review

We will be following the Activities from Friday, 09Nov2018 for 1st and 2nd period today.

You are encouraged to attend review in E6 or E3 afterschool even though there are no office hours scheduled.

The test is changed to Thu.-Fri., 15-16 Nov2018 the last two days of class before Break.

For a passive review, I suggest watching
- Kepler's Three Laws of Planetary Motion video
- The Universe: Beyond the Big Bang video

For an active review, I suggest reviewing the DoNow for each day and the notes in your notebook. Also, Ms. Tobin has put together a quizlet.com Review for the Universe. If the link doesn't work try google search for the terms "katie tobin 2 the universe"

The beginning of next class there will be about 15 minutes of quiet review before the test starts.

Kepler's Law Worksheet and Study Guide: Chapter 26.3 The Universe will be collected.

Notebook Assembly will be collected and kept in the classroom over break.

Continuing Poor Air Quality

I have planned to complete presentation of Kepler's 2nd and 3rd Law and have a formal review for Doppler Effect; the formation of the Universe and the Solar System for the upcoming test. I plan to complete the activities with our classes on Wednesday and make myself available afterschool on Wednesday and Thursday for anyone that needs help with preparing for test if the air quality allows it.

My goal is to complete the test before Thanksgiving Break to maximize the amount of time you are able to focus on your family over break.

If you are able, post questions, comments or helpful links to the blog so we can communicate as we are able. Please stay on the topic of reviewing for the upcoming test on Doppler Effect, the formation of the universe and the solar system or Earth's Place in the Universe.

Stay safe. Help your family and neighbors. Make good choices.

Poor Air Quality

I have received an email notifying all Petaluma City Schools will be closed today: Friday, November 9, 2018 due to poor air quality.

All staff should report to work.

Be safe and help if you can.
