Welcome to AT Physics! Today, we'll spend time getting to know each other and answering questions about the course. We will briefly go over what is available on my website, and will start introducing ourselves. You'll get a textbook today if you want one (optional).
Homework: Complete the Class Directory assignment in Google Classroom by 10pm tonight. I expect that you will check your school Gmail often; I will use it touch base with you. If you do not check this email often, then set up forwarding by following these instructions. Also, make sure you have reviewed the summer assignment. Although I am not collecting your work on this, you will be assessed on all of this material, so use it as a guide. ❗Assessment on what you should already know going into this class is on Thursday, September 9th.
