Driving the Roads
Embedded Files
Complete the assignments below. Yellow is Must-Do, green is Should-DO, and cyan is Strive-to-Do.
At the end of each unit will be a review activity, followed by the test. Everyone will participate in the review activity and test at the same time. Occasionally, we will need to have a whole class lab to conserve space, time, or supplies.
All activities should be completed cooperatively with 1 partner, unless otherwise noted.
Before asking Mr. Skapetis a question, you must ask other classmates your question. If they do not sufficiently answer your question, then you may ask. It's not that he doesn't want to help you, but this policy frees him to reteach and grade the steady flow of work.
If there seems to be a glitch in my system or thinking, please let me know so this can be a smooth process going forward.
*Hint* If it's underlined, it's a link.

1) Set-up Physics Log
Create a notebook in OneNote, make room for a the table of contents. Number the bottom right hand side of each page- include the backs.
2) WDYT
i) At the top of the 3rd page of your notebook, Label the Page as Ch. 1 Section 1- Reaction Time.
ii) Skip a line and write WDYT. Answer the What Do you think question at the beginning of the section as best as you can. IT IS PERFECTLY FINE TO BE WRONG. Don't use other people's answers. what do YOU think?
3) Investigate
i) Skip a line and write 'Investigate'
ii) Follow the instructions for this investigate. If you want, you can complete method A and B to compare your reaction times. Remember, whereever there is a pencil icon next to a number, you should be writing your answers. BUT, do not skip over the questions without the writing. This will confuse you.
