Below is a link to a page containing many physics concepts we will be discussing in class. During January we will be discussing energy. Let's take a look at some of the concepts we will be discussing in class. Just click the link below and enjoy!

Review physics at this hip-hop site! http://www.fmalive.com/

Begin by investigating sound waves. Complete the revision, activity and quiz. Next take a look at circuits, and conductors. Go ahead and complete the revision, activity and quizzes.

Try to build a circuit http://www.bbc.co.uk/schools/podsmission/electricity/annie02.shtml

Here's a cool game to learn more about electro-magnets. http://www.harcourtschool.com/activity/electromagnets/

Now let's take a look at how energy changes or can flow from one form to another. http://www.ftexploring.com/me/me2.html

After you've explored this website, go to the discussion board and explain the flow of energy from an apple seed to energy a human has when moving.

Here's a great site to start exploring just about everything you'd want to know about energy. Make certain you're reading to understand because you will be completing short presentation to check your knowledge! For now explore and enjoy learning http://www.ftexploring.com/energy/energy.html

We are learning about Force & Motion

Each Link has a learn, review and test component. Complete each. Use these links to review the big concepts before out test on Thursday 12/20.
