Synopsis:

The Physics Level I Teacher's Manual accompanies the Physics Level I Student Text and the Physics Level I Laboratory Workbook. The Teacher's Manual provides additional information about and answers to the laboratory experiments and review sections in the Physics Level I Laboratory Workbook. Concepts covered by the experiments include: physical laws; force, energy, and work; potential and kinetic energy; inertia, friction, and momentum; the energy of atoms and molecules; electrical energy; magnets; and conservation of energy. A materials list for each experiment is included. Physics Level I is geared toward grades 4-6.

About the Author: Dr. Keller received her Ph.D. in biophysical chemistry from the University of New Mexico in 1992. She continued her work with an NSF postdoctoral fellowship in the Department of Molecular Biology at UNM followed by a Burroughs Wellcome Fund Postdoctoral Fellowship in the Department of Molecular Biology at the University of California, Berkeley. Dr. Keller has written for the homeschool market for over eight years, and having been in an academic setting for most of her adult career, Dr. Keller understands the issues faced by both religious and secular parents. The Real Science-4-Kids books are Dr. Keller’s answer to the difficult territory teachers and parents navigate as they try to sort through the various philosophical perspectives found in science. Real Science-4-Kids is written as a “worldview-neutral” curriculum that Dr. Keller hopes will not only provide students with a solid foundation for science, but also give them the tools to evaluate scientific data on their own. Dr. Keller does not believe we should rely on the “experts” but instead learn how to critically evaluate every scientific claim.
