Lesson Topic
A DOLL'S HOUSE
Lesson Outline
We first studied how a plot's resolution can reveal character. Additionally, we examined how a plot' s resolution can change a character's perspective. In regards to reading ACT III , I encouraged Joshua to examine how character and perspective change as a result of Nora's dramatic decision to leave her husband. We then looked at ongoing symbols and their significance: the macaroons, the Christmas tree, Nora's hair ,and her torn dress. We discussed how Nora is actually discussing herself ,not her dress ,as she acknowledges it is torn and needs mending.

Gibbs Free Energy
Lesson Outline
Prepare a free entry problem to be solved in class. From the formula to determine free energy, and some given numbers, have Joshua derive the entropy an enthalpy needed to solve th fee energy equation. Once each unknown is solved, substitute into the equation and solve for the free energy.Analyze the results and determine if the reaction will proceed spontaneously. View and discuss a AP video which involves Gibbs free enenergy.

Lesson Topic
lab-circuits
Lesson Outline
Lab to investigate parallel and series circuits. Voltage, current, and resistance is measured using 1-3 resistances (light bulbs). Tables are designed to list the measured amps and voltage for each set of resistors, and the resistance calculated using Ohms. The effect on the voltage, current and resistance for each circuit is determined.

Lesson Topic
Conic Sections
Lesson Outline
We are studying the conic sections: ellipse, parabola, and hyperbola. We will look at the equations of each and the information that the equation gives us in relation to the graph of each conic section. We will also find the equation if we are given the graph of a conic section.
Assignment
6 problems from section 9.1 of the textbook.

We completed the lesson and after reviewing the homework in the next session we will be able to begin a study of parametric equations. We are nearing completion of the material covered on the AP Calculus test and will then begin a time of preparing for the test.

Lesson Topic
Gibbs free energy
Lesson Outline
Derive a single thermodynamic function which would allow the determination of a spontaneous reaction. Discuss why and how every substance possess free energy, but it is the changes in free energy, delta G, that are measured in chemical and physical reactions. The Gibbs fee energy formula is presented, viewed on a graph, and determined how each result on the graph determines whether the reaction will occur spontaneously or not. Spontaneous reactions are determined by whether G is less than zero, equal to zero, or greater than zero

Lesson Topic
Dolls House
Lesson Outline
We began our study of Ibsen's play, A Doll's House. We addressed character contrasts, foils, and how stage directions work with dialogue to impart character and motivation. We specifically identified how Krogstead and Nora are both deemed by society as morally flawed as each has forged a document, while Dr Rank is deemed morally flawed due to his infirmity which society deems inherited. From there, we examined Ibsen's dialogue which vividly illustrates how Nora's husband demeans and infantilizes her . We studied how Nora rejects society's imposed norms of a women's role in a marriage and what constitutes a moral flaw.

Buffers
Lesson Outline
Describe how buffers will adjust pH of a solution very slightly. Discuss why a buffered solution is resistant to change in the pH when an acid or base is added. Define a buffer in terms of added acid and conjugate base formation. Introduce a buffer problem: What is the pH of a solution that contains a given molarity of acetic acid and a given molarity of sodium acetate. Work through the problem completely, include the formation of an ICE table and derivation of the pH based on the new pH of the solution
