We closely analyzed Auden's poem "Musee des Beaux Arts" by first studying the Brueghel painting referenced in the poem and then discussing the function of the allusion to the fall of Icarus. Joshua did well identifying the theme of hubris associated with Icarus and we then discussed how the poem's theme of egocentrism and the fall of Icarus relate. We next studied the poem's ambiguity which on its surface condemns how suffering is blithely ignored by those not impacted yet also suggests that perhaps this aspect of human nature is at times necessary. Last, we looked at the poem's structure, the hidden rhymes, again relating to the poem's image of suffering hiding in plain sight.

We will discuss the five problem assignment on area between curves. This will be followed by an overview of a new topic, volumes of revolution. Examples problems will be done also.

Determine why electrons are assigned to specific orbitals, s, p, d, f. Discuss attraction and repulsion forces found between nuclear protons and electrons. View and discuss an electron cloud diagram for lithium which shows the penetration of electrons from higher energy levels into lower ones, and discuss the radial probability curve for fining the electron in orbit. Discuss the different methods of presenting the electron configuration of an atom. Introduce the spdf notation, the orbital box notation and the noble gas configuration notation.

conversation about winter break and selection of lesson content for upcoming weeks

We continued studying poetic irony ,symbols, and juxtaposition by analyzing Owen's famous anti -war poem, "Anthem for Doomed Youth." Joshua charted the use of juxtaposition in the poem by noting the contrasting images of "church bells and rattling rifles " ," church candles and dying soldiers' eyes", and "prayers and wailing shells." We discussed the function of these techniques in elucidating the poem's anti-war message. We next began an examination of Auden's "Musee des Beax Arts" noting the use of allusion to famous artistic drawings of Bruegel which I displayed.

Examples will be done to show the area between two curves can be calculated using integration. We will also find the area of a region of the coordinate plane given the boundaries.

Discuss why compound formulas are based on the distribution of electrons within the atom, how the electrons are arranged. State and discuss the Pauli exclusion principle along with a generalization of the principle. Review quantum numbers and what they demonstrate. Discuss attraction and repulsion of electrons by protons and other electrons in the atom. Use diagrams to indicate why electrons can exist and sub shells

We first reviewed the poetic techniques that are the subject of Unit 8 : extended metaphor, juxtaposition , allusion , and symbolism. After studying Housman's poem "To an Athlete Dying Young" we analyzed how these techniques create ambiguity in the speaker's perspective toward death. We noted the symbolism of "shade, the road, and laurels" as well as the ironic structure of the poem, ie. its meter and rhyme.

Discuss sound and light as waves. Review how sound requires a medium while light does not. Define vibration and wave. Explain period of a wave. Demonstrate the production of a simple harmonic motion wave, a sine wave. Form a sketch of the wave label and define the crests, trough , wave length, and amplitude. Define frequency of the wave and discuss units. Define wave period and relate it to the frequency.

Discuss typical German Christmas traditions.
