Slides on Topic 2 - Kinematics (Physics) and Topic 20 - Acid, Bases and Salts

Hello!

For those of you who are eager to do some reading before the actual lessons, you can view the slides which I will be using here:

Physics Topic 2 - Kinematics
Combined Science Topic 20 - Chemistry of Acids, Bases and Salts

I will be updating these files to my liking, if needed. Thank you. :D

Combined Science Topic 19 Calculating Mass (Extra)

To those who lost your sheet of paper, you can download the file here. Don't forget to hand this exercise in latest by Tuesday, 18/2/14. :D

EDIT: Since we were very busy with National Day practice, I have extended the dateline to  Tuesday, 4/3/2014, so make sure you hand your work by then.

Cheers!

Physics Topic 2 - Kinematics

Hello!

We are going to start on Topic 2 - Kinematics real soon, after we finish the last bit of Topic 1. 

So, what is Topic 2 about?
Kinematics is basically all about movements. If an object is moving, most likely we can calculate its speed and acceleration.

Want to get a head start? Then watch these video clips on youtube:

Enjoy your National Days practice :P

Reminder for deadline

Dear Combined Science boys,

I hope noone forgot to hand in your work. The final dateline for your Topic 19 exercises is next next week, 18th February 2014.  This includes:

• Classwork pg 6
• Classwork pg 8
• Calculating Mass (Extra) homework

For Physics, all of your work should be handed in latest, on Monday, 17th February 2014.

If you have any questions, or do not understand some parts of our lesson, feel free to leave a comment/question here. :D

Having problems listening to your teachers in class?

I came across this article and decided to share it with you guys. I know some of you might have problems paying attention in class.  As a student, listening is a very important skill, hence you need to develop your listening skills to ensure the efficiency of your learning experience during our lessons. 

The strategy talked about in the article is known as the HEAR strategy.

The HEAR strategy consists of these four steps:

• Halt: Stop whatever else you are doing, end your internal dialogue on other thoughts, and free your mind to pay attention to the person speaking.
• Engage: Focus on the speaker. We suggest a physical component, such as turning your head slightly so that your right ear is toward the speaker as a reminder to be engaged solely in listening.
• Anticipate: By looking forward to what the speaker has to say, you are acknowledging that you will likely learn something new and interesting, which will enhance your attention.
• Replay: Think about what the speaker is saying. Analyze and paraphrase it in your mind or in discussion with the speaker and other classmates. Replaying the information will aid in understanding and remembering what you have learned.

 You can read the article here.

Selamat Datang kali ah

Hello! This is where I will be sharing our content with you. For starters, I will provide the syllabus for you. It might be a good idea for you to read through the syllabus as to get an idea on how the subject is going to look like. 

 For Physics (Year 9ScII boys): [Link] 
For Combined Science (Year 10 boys): [Link] 

 Let's all work together to aim for success, or failure. It's totally up to you.

Ask yourself, are you a quitter? Or a winner?
