Hands on Physics Activities

This comprehensive collection of nearly 200 investigations, demonstrations, mini-labs, and other activities uses everyday examples to make physics concepts easy to understand. For easy use, this resource is organised into eight units of study listed below. Each unit offers a variety of activities designed to provide interaction between students and their world in a way that encourages scientific reasoning.
 

• Energy and momentum
• Measurement
• Motion
• Waves
• Force
• Light
• Pressure
• Electromagnetism

 
More than 300 illustrations supplement instruction, add interest, and heighten the learning process. Also included is a handy appendix that contains listings of physical quantities and their units, common conversions, units of pressure, and more. And as a special help, each lesson provides completed answer keys and enough detailed explanation to ensure success for even the inexperienced science teacher. This can be used as a supplement or as a stand-alone physics programme in itself.
