Description:

This 15-module, creation-based science text introduces students to physical science through engaging lessons, formal experiments, and “You do Science” mini-experiments that give students the opportunity for even deeper-learning. Four modules cover the basics of chemistry, including properties and states of matter, atomic structure and the periodic table, chemical bonds, and reactions and energy. Six modules are dedicated to physics and include the study of motion, forces, energy, light, and electricity and magnetism. Students finish out their year learning about Earth science. Discussions, videos and many hands-on experiments and activities keep students engaged and learning. Homework ~ 2-3 hours weeks includes completing the Student Notebook assignments and Study Guides. No auditing. Students are expected to do all tests and complete homework.
