February 6-February 21

Welcome to the 2nd Semester!  For all of you, that means a fresh start.  If you weren't as successful as you wanted to be 1st semester, this is a chance to do things differently.  Resolve to get all of your assignments in on time.  If you don't understand something, ask for help right away, and come in for FLEX if you need more.  If you are absent, check the website for work and when you come back, make up assignments and notebook entries right away.  Don't wait until the end of the quarter to try to scramble to get caught up because that freqently backfires.

Mon/Tues 2/6-2/7:  Final Exams back, look at them, and then recollect.  Notes on Work and Power.   Do some work and power problems and then do the Stairs Lab.
Wed/Thurs 2/8-2/9:  Finish work and power problems and stairs lab.  Turn in.  Notes on Machines and Mechanical Advantage.  Lever Lab.
Fri/Mon 2/10-2/13:  Turn in Lever Lab.  Pulley Lab done in Notebook.  Efficiency.  Machine Problems.
