Physical Science Curriculum Map

The experiments in this module fall under eleven topics that relate to three aspects of physical science:

1. Fluids and Dynamics

2. Systems in Action

3. Light and Optical Systems

In each section you will find teacher notes designed to provide you guidance with the learning intention, the success criteria, materials needed, a lesson outline, as well as provide some insight on what results to expect when the experiments are conducted.

Suggestions for differentiation are also included so that all students can be successful in the learning environment.
