Welcome to Physics 2009!

I am very excited to guide you along this journey of discovering the physics concepts that explain why the world and universe works the way that it does.

Physics is the study of interactions in the natural world.  In our physics class, we will be using all the tools available to us to uncover the physics laws that govern our universe.

You will need to use your skills in mathematics, problem-solving, communication and logical thinking to connect physics principles to the activities that we will do this year.

This physics 1 class is about doing physics to learn physics.  You will be performing lab activities to find out what patterns emerge from the data about position, speed, acceleration, etc.  You will have to apply the physics principles to new challenge.

The First week of school online assignment is described on the Class News page.  Visit the News page to read and follow the description of the assignment.
