Dear Students: This is the last week of the year. For this week, there is a Fun inquiry activity for you guys to take a look at. Once you finish it, you can send me an email with your insight. Please, follow the document below and have a great rest of the Summer!
Mr. Solari
Dear Students: This week is just a short of review of Work and energy. All work is due no later than May 15, with this week's work counting only towards participation. Congratulate yourselves for a most amazing effort this quarter!
Please, follow the instructions below for this week's review
Mr. Solari
Dear Students: This week we will be reviewing essential concepts of linear motion. Whereas you are moving at a constant speed or accelerating, the main thing is to keep moving. Here is an example of motion with acceleration: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vxFYfumAAlY
Please follow the instructions below for this week's lessons and let me know if you have any questions.
Mr. Solari
Dear Students: This week you will be introduced to Electricity and the basic circuit, with the concepts of voltage, current and resistance. It's Electric, here is a demo of an electric piano at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2kaXBrXvzHQ
Please follow the instructions below for this week's lessons and let me know if you have any questions.
Mr. Solari
Dear Students: This week we will be reviewing the concepts of Torque and Circular motion. Hopefully you will not feel "sucked in" by the centripetal force as you have to stay home. Please follow the instructions below for the review this week.
Mr. Solari
Dear Students: Please follow the instructions below for the week of April 6th : A review of Standing Waves and more sound waves characteristics
The Questions are due by Thursday (no remote learning Friday - it is Good Friday) of the week, although late work is accepted. Here is a little bit on the use of sonar (sound in water): https://oceanservice.noaa.gov/facts/sonar.html
Dear Students: Please follow the instructions for the week of March 30- April 3rd below : A review of waves and sound
At the right side are the instructions to follow for each day and on the left side is the independent practice. Only the Questions outlined are to be emailed at the end of the week. Let me know if you have any questions.

Mr. Solari
Hello Everyone: Welcome to our first week of the 4th Quarter!
For this week, all you will be asked is to do some reviewing on your own and after the reviewing answer a question after watching a video with related content. I appreciate everyone's effort and I will be here at msolari@bfcsaz.com to assist you with any questions or concerns.
1. Review the last two power-point/notes documents at the end of this web-page on reflection and refraction at your own pace and as much as you are able to.
2. Go to the following link to read about telescopes https://courses.lumenlearning.com/physics/chapter/26-5-telescopes/
3. Use the following link to learn/review radio waves and learn the uses of a radio telescope: https://science.nasa.gov/ems/05_radiowaves and write a paragraph (3 sentences is good enough) describing how a radio telescope operates. Email me the response at msolari@bfcsaz.com . There is no set date for this, you can respond as you complete the review.
Wish all of you guys a great week, let me know if I can assist you in any way.
Sincerely,
Mr. Solari
Dear Students:
This week, as we transition to the 4th Quarter in an online modality of learning, will be somewhat different, but we will make it a good one!
This week, I will provide some videos and continuation/review of the content available through this page on the topic of Light which we just completed last quarter.
It is likely there will only be a few simple questions to answer about the review, just to stay connected with the material.
As I still need to provide some work for the students who had incomplete grades at the end of last quarter, there will be more information on the review items and these will be posted by tomorrow, Tuesday March 24th.
In the mean time, did you read about the new advances in quantum mechanics? Multiple universes? : https://www.nbcnews.com/mach/science/weirdest-idea-quantum-physics-catching-there-may-be-endless-worlds-ncna1068706
