Weekly Update!

Time for another exciting week of PHS[IB], a week including my birthday! :D Don't forget HELIE'S birthday!

This week's agenda:

Monday (HELIE'S BIRTHDAY!)-

  • IB Pre-Calculus (Mrs. Li) - The "Fishing Rods" IA is due TODAY! No exceptions, so get it done and turn it in, everyone.
  • AP English Literature and Composition (Mr. Murray) - The third and last journal for Chronicle of a Death Foretold will be due. Pick one of the two remaining prompts on your assignment sheet.
  • AP Calculus BC (Mr. Bobbitt) - We will continue the IB activity begun on Thursday. Remember that you are allowed to use the IB formula packet. Be sure to round to three (3) significant digits if necessary. Juniors, the "Designing a Freight Elevator" HL IA Type II will be due today with NO EXCEPTIONS! Get it in (Neha)! Do your best, as this will count 15% of your final IB Math HL score.
Tuesday -
  • IB Theatre I (Mrs. Brooks) - The outline for the research investigation will be due.
  • AP Chemistry (Mrs. Smith) - There will be a test on Chapter 19 from the textbook.
Wednesday -
  • AP Calculus BC (Mr. Bobbitt) - We will begin an IB activity that will last until Friday. Be sure to round to three (3) significant digits if necessary. You will also be allowed to use the IB formula packet.
  • AP U.S. History (Mr. Rose) - The prompt question research will be due. Be sure to have it typed and include specific historical examples in your research. In addition, there will be a quiz. Half of it will come from Chapter 11 of the Princeton Review. The other half will come from the lecture notes.
Thursday -
  • AP English Literature and Composition (Mr. Murray) - We will be having a quiz on Part III (p.48-71) of Chronicle. Be sure to read carefully for minor details.
  • AP Calculus BC (Mr. Bobbitt) - We will continue the IB activity. Be sure to round to three (3) significant digits if necessary. You will also be allowed to use the IB formula packet.
Friday (SETH'S BIRTHDAY!) -
  • IB Theatre I (Mrs. Brooks) - The research investigation is due on your chosen topic. Remember, the SL word limit is 1500-1750. The HL word limit is something like 2000-2500 (I didn't catch it since it didn't apply to me). Be sure to do well, as it counts 25% of your final IB Theatre score (from 1-7). Alternately, you may turn it in on 13 April with no penalty, though you will have the minor penalty of having to work harder during Spring Break. The choice is yours.
  • AP Calculus BC (Mr. Bobbitt) - The first and final draft of calculator lab #13 will be due. Note that THIS IS DIFFERENT THAN USUAL. THERE IS NO ROUGH DRAFT. We will also finish the IB activity begun Wednesday. Remember to be sure to round to three (3) significant digits if necessary. Also, don't forget that you are allowed to use the IB formula packet.
  • AP Chemistry (Mrs. Smith) - The acid-base titration lab will be due. Be sure to follow the IB rubric.
