We will begin our study of integrals by finding general solutions for antiderivatives. We will work toward finding particular solutions and then to evaluating integrals.

Joshua was taking the SAT test. We had a brief conversation about the assignment and a type of problem on the SAT test.
Define enthalpy as a thermodynamic quantity. Explain delta H terminology in terms of molar compounds, and standard temperature and pressure. Use several examples and examine the table of standard enthalpies of formation. Determine that most delta H results are negative which indicates that the formation of a compound from elements is usually an exothermic reaction. Decomposition of a compound results in heat usually absorbed. Note the zero results for certain elements and ions.

We will review derivatives by going over the two assigned problems. We will study integrals and antiderivatives by looking at distance, speed, acceleration, and time graphs. We will do examples of definite integrals.

All went well. we completed everything planned in the lesson outline.
Review and discuss heat of fusion and heat of vaporization. Calculate the heat of fusion and heat of vaporization involved in converting a given amount of ice into liquid and then into a vapor. Introduce a problem, write and discuss the steps needed to solve, present required heats for each step and calculate the heat energy required. Use the formula q1 + q2 +q3 .....= total heat of the system.
Discuss momentum as inertia in motion. Recall inertia definition. Introduce momentum as mass x velocity. Discuss the effect of mass and velocity on momentum. Introduce impulse as a change in momentum. Discuss how an increase in force will cause a change in velocity which results in a change in acceleration and a change in momentum. Define impulse as force x time the force is applied. Show how F x T = change in mass x velocity.

Lesson Outline
Today's lesson addressed the function of pacing and tempo . Using the story "The Open Boat" we analyzed the story's structure, in media res, and how the pacing or delay in the story's resolution functioned to create the protagonist's character change to an empathetic person . We then looked at AP MCQ questions on this topic and discussed how to analyze and correctly answer these types of questions.
Fire Fighter Demo-
After the demonstration, Joshua grabbed his laptop and he opened his file. Joshua and I worked together to create a staircase for his design.
Lab exercise to determine the specific heat of a metal. The specific heat is calculated by first finding the heat transfer from the metal to. given amount of water using a styrofoam calorimeter.
