Greetings from Mr. Webber
You can’t play a game if you don’t know the rules, and the more you know the rules the more you enjoy the game. Physics is the study of nature’s “rules” – the rules and laws governing the universe in which you are a part. So, to learn physics is to learn about ourselves and the arena of physical and natural laws that govern all aspects of our lives, from the atoms within our cells to the motions of galaxies and the energies in distant quasars!
This course is college-level, and the rigors and expectations are synonymous with such. You will be expected to do a minimum of one hour of addition work and study every night, more before tests, and you must keep up with the pace of the course. But while the course is challenging, the rewards, satisfaction, and sense of achievement that comes from your hard work makes it all worthwhile.
I am looking forward to a positive and exciting academic year!
Mr. Webber
