1. I want you to identify a city that you are traveling to (it can't be a well-known city... don't say "We went to Tokyo" because everyone knows you would be in Japan.
2. Research a custom or special activity that you can do. (if you went to Japan, you could go to a dojo (karate house) and practice martial arts... or you could go to someone's house for supper and drink tea and wear a Kimono.
3. Determine how much this trip would cost for 10 people (This will be a gang of 10 people that are running around the globe with the stolen credit card.
My example
I like nature, so the group of credit card thieves traveled to Neiafu. We went to this location to do some whale watching. We went swimming with Humpback whales. The whales travel to Neiafu to have their calves in the warm water and provide a location for the calves to grow. Each person spent $95 of the local currency ($950 total for everyone) and we stayed at a Adventure Backpackers for $20 for each person per day for 2 days. How much total money did we spend?

If you would like to read the syllabus for the Life Science or Earth Science, please click on the links to access information such as classroom rules, the grading scale, and topics to be discussed.
One last thing that you might find interesting is a NASA picture of the day. Every picture has a great description of what you are seeing.
Enjoy!
Classroom expectations
I expect you to:
1. Always think safety first. NO HORESEPLAY IN THE LAB AREA!

Studying for the Chapter 18 (Motion and Momentum) test
Section 1: What is motion quiz
Section 1 math help dealing with speed
Section 2: Acceleration = (the change in velocity)/ time
or = (final speed- initial speed)/time (we should use a unit of direction)
The acceleration unit is normally meters per second per second or m/s/s.
This is also known as m/s2 <------(squared)
Acceleration quiz
Acceleration math problems
Section 3: Momentum
key words - mass, inertia, conservation of momentum
Sec 3 Momentum practice quiz
Momentum- practice math questions
