Fundamentals of Physics is a cooperative, project-based class for middle grade students, with both in-class activities and a project or challenge to complete each week outside of class.
Class experience
US Grade 6 - 7
Physics begins with our everyday life, describing the matter, forces, and energy of ordinary experiences. Fundamentals of Physics: Motion, Forces and Energy is a cooperative, activity-based class, with both in-class activities and a project or challenge to complete each week outside of class. This class is geared towards students working at the 6th through 8th grade level. Students should be able to read, write, and complete basic math functions (add, subtract, multiply, and divide)....
Students will obtain a deeper understanding of the physical world. They will also gain STEM skills while creating projects, use the scientific method to carry out home-based experiments, and gain confidence and speaking skills while sharing projects with peers in a low-pressure setting.
Before I became an online teacher, I taught Physics in a public middle school for many years. This was one of my favorite classes to teach, because there are so many hands-on activities to use to teach the material.
Homework Offered
This is a project based class, so students should be prepared to work for 1-2 hours each week on their projects. Some activities are open-ended engineering projects, in which they design and create a project based on a specific physics topic. Other activities are experiments to test physics principles using the steps of the scientific method. Some parental assistance may be needed.1 - 2 hours per week outside of class
Assessments Offered
Each project that is sent in to the teacher will receive informal, encouraging feedback.Grades Offered

Google software, such as Google Sheets is used in this class so that students can share their results of different experiments. Students will need a free account to access the Google software.
