This class is for any high school student who wants to learn chemistry and physics from a licensed secondary education teacher who knows all of the cool things these subjects offer, as well as how to teach them to make them really fun and engaging. We can even apply grades to the student’s work to report on transcripts if that is requested.
If you are signing up 2 or more children from the same household, please use code MK10 (multiple kids) for a 10% discount! If the cost of this class is a barrier, scholarship funds are available for low-income families. Please contact us for details.
Students will choose a particular phenomenon of interest which covers a great deal of the requirements of the Colorado Academic Standards and the Next Generation Science Standards.
High school Physical Science covers both Chemistry and Physics.
- Newton’s laws of motion and gravitation describe the relationships among forces acting on and between objects, their masses, and changes in their motion – but have limitations.
- Matter has definite structure that determines characteristic physical and chemical properties
- Matter can change form through chemical or nuclear reactions abiding by the laws of conservation of mass and energy
- Atoms bond in different ways to form molecules and compounds that have definite properties
- Energy exists in many forms such as mechanical, chemical, electrical, radiant, thermal, and nuclear, that can be quantified and experimentally determined
- When energy changes form, it is neither created not destroyed; however, because some is necessarily lost as heat, the amount of energy available to do work decreases
