Lab manual-affect on increase in mass on the acceleration of an object. 4 trials will be completed, each with a constant difference in mass. The average time for each trial calculated, the distance covered for each trial and the acceleration due to each average time. A graph will be produced and analysis of the results.
Unit 4- Short Fiction II/function of character, setting ,and structure
Lesson Outline
As the curriculum advances in complexity we again are studying short fiction or short stories, today Sherwood Anderson's "The Untold Lie." I provided instruction on gleaning characterization from personal history, setting, details, and actions. We then identified techniques that reflect character such as symbols and figurative language. Last, we addressed thematic implications of these two techniques. For homework ,Joshua is writing an essay based on today's instruction.
Joshua opened his gradient map project we worked together to create a three gradient maps, using complementary colors. Joshua completed the same process for triadic colors. We moved on to work on an influence map. Joshua was instructed to find 13 pictures of things that interest him and save them to his graphic design folder.
We will discuss the assignment on pages 208-9. This assignment involved problems similar to those that will be on the AP test, but all were related to the current topic of finding derivatives. This is good preparation and review. We will also discuss the document on derivatives I sent him earlier today.

Lesson Comments
We had connection issues and Josh had computer issues so we did not complete the review problems. We did have time to discuss the summary of chapter 2 document that I sent to hime earlier today.
We will work through several examples of derivatives of inverse functions. The guidelines for solving related rates problems will be presented and followed by examples.

Lesson Comments
We were able to do several examples of derivatives of inverse functions. We also did several related rates problems. We are making very good progress through calculus at this point. I did tell Josh that I will be back in person for class starting October 28 and will be there until the end of the last day of school in May.
Determination of oxidation numbers of elements and ions identified in various reactions.
indicating which species is oxidized, which is reduced, what the redox numbers are, identification of the oxidizing agent and the reducing agent. Determine which written equations are not redox reactions and why.
Unit 4- Short Fiction II/function of character, setting ,and structure
Lesson Outline
I provided instruction by on the board outlining the meaning and function of characterization. I further provided instruction on how to analyze character by inferring and then addressing a character's motives, traits, bias, and personal history. I then noted how setting can also convey or reflect character. We then applied these theoretical constructs to three of the short stories we have already studied,"Two kinds, The Yellow Wallpaper, and The Story of an Hour. " Next, I explained some of the functions of character as at times providing contrast between values or illustrating an archetypal character development from ignorance to knowledge.
Joshua was instructed to open Creative Cloud and download Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, and Adobe XD. While the software was downloading, I worked with him on basic color theory, covering primary, secondary, and tertiary colors. I provided Joshua with a file so we could incorporate these basic colors into specific color schemes. We managed to complete the first two of four exercises.
