9th/10th US Geography Ch. 8 Lecture Videos...

Before you being your lessons for this week in US Geography, please head over and check out your Weekly Schedule HERE. We are beginning chapter 8 which will be spread out through the remainder of the school year. Whenever we study a region of the United States, you will then choose a state and complete a small project associated with that state.

For this week, we are beginning with the Northeastern part of the United States. You'll notice in google classroom the states, captials, and abbreviations worksheets that you will be completing for this section. These worksheets may sometimes not have the exact states in that region, but that won't be a problem. By the time we are done in May, you will have reviewed all fifty states, with both their captials and abbreviations.

For this week, you will be watching The Northeast Video Part 1 and the Northeast Video Part 2. Be sure that you have already read and made an oultine before watching the videos and taking notes from those lectures. Both of these will be graded and recorded as a quiz grade in my gradebook.

Please be sure to check out google classroom to complete all your homework assignments except for the Activities worksheet that you will find in your packet for this week. Let me know if you have any questions!

11th/12th Physics Chapter 19 Lecture Videos...

Be sure to check out your Weekly Schedule HERE before heading over to watch your weekly video lectures HERE. For this week, your BJU Physics videos are broken into five sections: 19A Part 1, 19A Part 2, 19B Part 1, 19B Part 2, and 19B Part 3. You are to be watching a lecture video each day, meaning your test over chapter 19 will be next Monday, April 20th.

Homework for Physics, whether it be section review questions or the worksheets, will all be in google classroom. Be sure to complete them before Monday, April 20th, including the videos for how to work the problems that I will be posting throughout the week. This all plays into your two notebook grades that are recorded on test days for homework grades.
