Enhance middle school physical science learning with real-life applications in meteorology, aviation, and STEM. Designed for engagement and exploration, this course focuses on practical concepts, not high-level math. Course Overview: This engaging Middle School Physical Science course emphasizes real-world applications of key scientific concepts. Taught by an experienced Aviation Meteorologist and STEM-certified Arizona teacher, it integrates knowledge from Physical Science, 12th Edition by Bill W. Tillery (no purchase necessary), interactive PowerPoint slides, and real-life examples. Focus: Practical understanding of middle school physical science concepts, requiring only basic math skills. Real-Life Applications: Topics are explored through a lens of meteorology, aviation, and military science to ensure students can apply and retain what they learn. Engagement: Interactive learning sessions with personal teacher-student interactions to spark curiosity and inquiry. Career Inspiration: Discover potential science-related careers in fields like meteorology, aviation, and beyond. Course Structure: Introduction (5 minutes): Welcome students, review previous lessons, and address questions to solidify foundational understanding. Main Session (40 minutes): Interactive exploration of textbook concepts using PowerPoint presentations, short videos, and real-world examples. Students are encouraged to ask questions and participate in discussions. Conclusion (5 minutes): Recap the day’s learning, address any remaining questions, and engage in a short verbal quiz to reinforce retention. Why Enroll in This Course? This course provides a unique opportunity to learn physical science with a hands-on, real-world approach. With its focus on practical applications, student engagement, and career exploration, it’s perfect for middle school learners looking to build a strong foundation in science while staying inspired.
