Your Final is worth 15% of your semester grade. Which means to calculate your grade for the semester:
[(your grade before the final) x 0.85] + [(your grade on the final) x 0.15] = Your semester grade
Things you can do to study:
1. Review your Notebooks for each unit. They should have a list of vocabulary terms, all of your equations and helpful pictures from notes.
2. Review the Daily Warm-up Questions. If you have been writing your DWQs down each day you have a question and answer to study.
Second Semester:
Here is the Second Semester Final Review Activity (google doc) and the Answers (google doc)
Try going through this Final Objectives list (google doc) and make sure you can do everything on here (for 2018: you can skip the last section on Color & Light). It is an excellent review of all that you have learned throughout the past semester!
(Old) 2nd Semester Review Packet (pdf or google doc) (Ignore the questions that relate to Mirrors. This is Packet is also missing questions related to Momentum, Work, Power, & Energy.)
2nd Semester Equation Sheet (for reference; the same one you'll get on the day of the Final Exam) (pdf)
