Physical Science AB

Courses Overview

This Physical Science course addresses overarching ideas of two branches of science, chemistry, and physics, per the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS), which emphasize critical thinking and engineering practices. Students participate in labs and project-based learning. They will ask questions, form hypotheses, and investigate. They incorporate graphs and tables to represent their quantitative and qualitative data and use this evidence to support their claims. Upon completing the course, students will have foundational scientific knowledge of the laws and theories regarding matter and energy that encourage the application of science to real-life contexts.
