Study Guide 

STUDY TIPS
1. Can I talk about the topic with confidence? If not, practice. Tell everyone you know about the Antibiotic Crisis , Newton's Law, Acceleration, etc.
2. Do you have the 4 equations memorized?
3. Do you understand how to apply key concepts to the real world?
4. Practice writing hypothesizes.
5. Review YouTube videos, Neto's Website, and your own Digital Notebooks.
6. Write and rewrite tricky definitions, formulas and key concepts.
7. Day of the test, read the entire questions and answer ALL parts of the question.

Key Concepts and Vocabulary for Science Assessment #1

  • What are Newton's 1st and 2nd Law of Motion? What does the equation Force= Acceleration X Mass mean? What is force verses net force? What is inertia? How do you calculate speed versus velocity? How do you calculate acceleration? What units do you use for each equation?
  • What is a hypothesis? How do you write a quality hypothesis? 
  • What are the steps of the Scientific Method? How is the Scientific Method similar to the Design Thinking Process? What are the steps of the Design Thinking Process? What is the purpose of both the Scientific Method and the Design Thinking Process?
  • What is a total solar eclipse? How is it different from a partial solar eclipse? What is the path of totality? What is it dangerous to look at a solar eclipse?
