About

This crash course is designed to be a conceptual preparation for students taking college/AP Physics 1 course in the fall. We will cover the first seven units of AP Physics 1 (Kinematics, Dynamics, Circular Motion & Gravitation, Energy, Momentum, Simple Harmonic Motion, Rotational Motion) so that you will have a solid grasp of the concepts before the school year starts! 
﻿
Suggested Prereqs: Algebra II and some Right-Angle Trigonometry 
﻿
Looking forward to teaching y'all!

✋ ATTENDANCE POLICY

Since much of the later course content builds off of previously taught knowledge (especially rotational motion), please try to attend all classes! If possible, try not to miss more than two or you may be removed!
