1 Curriculum Map: Physics/Lab Course: Physics Sub-topic: Physics Grade(s): 10 to 12 Course Course Textbooks, Workbooks, Materials Citations: Through theory and laboratory practices, the student will learn the meaning of fundamental measurement, acquire these measurements and analyze their significance to a precise value. Physics is a course focused on the following core topics: motion and forces; energy and momentum; vibrations and waves; light and optics; electricity and magnetism. Instruction focuses on developing student understanding that scientific knowledge is gained from observation of natural phenomena and experimentation. Students will design and conduct investigations guided by theory. They will also evaluate and communicate the results of those investigations according to accepted procedures.
