Exploring Physics: A Hands-On Discovery of How the World Works
Class experience
US Grade 6 - 8
Each week, we will explore a new concept in physics. Students will hypothesize, experiment with digital simulations, and discuss outcomes to develop an intuitive understanding of physics. Each class can stand alone, but students will benefit from consistent attendance and the unique content of each session. This class aims to help students develop an interest in science and a strong foundation of understanding for later studies. This class is excellent for students with an interest in...
This class aims to help students develop an interest in science and a strong foundation of understanding for later studies.
