Day 132 – More DI

Physics 11 – More direct instruction today.  Students don’t have to copy out many notes thankfully.  But… yuck, I did not enjoy speaking from the pulpit.  I also included a second worked example:

If you’d like copies of these, here they are:

• completely filled out notes (pdf)
• Notes (MS Word) with filled out 2nd worked example
