This course is designed to prepare students for future high school science courses with an introduction to a variety of topics such as the physics of motion, chemistry, and energy. Students will learn and practice experimental procedures using household chemicals and supplies. Students will complete several research projects on the periodic table and digital and analog signals. Students will apply scientific ideas learned as they design and build two projects related to motion and energy.

FROM THE TEACHER

Do you enjoy doing experiments? Then Physical Science is the course for you. This class has many hands on activities and experiments using household materials to help you understand the amazing processes that God has put in place to make creation function as it does.

Examine a few elements, identify some forces, create some waves, and we’ll discover some reactions!

If there are books and materials for this course, they can be purchased from our Online Bookstore.

Student Feedback

I thought it was well organized with the set up.

What I value the most about NSA is how organized it is and how much I have learned. The types of assignments I found most beneficial were the projects you had us do. I really enjoyed this class.

This was one of my favorite classes so far! I enjoyed it very much.
