This science course meets the students where they are:  on the sports field, on the roads and in the classroom.  Through physical science, students will learn how everything they do relates to chemistry and physics.  In the chemistry chapters, they will see the wonder in how matter and energy interact in the food we eat, the drinks we drink, and the matter that makes up our world.  In the physics chapters, they will see how things move, why things move, and why objects behave as they do.  This is a quest to understand the matter that God has created.

• IPC is the foundational, honors physical science course that prepares students for upper-level high school science studies (Biology / Chemistry / Physics).
• It is required that the student take Algebra 1 either before or while taking this course to be prepared for the calculations in the Physics part of the course.
• IPC is a full lecture and lab course including testing that will earn 1 high school honors credit in science.
• Laboratory exercises hone skills in deduction, reasoning, and problem-solving, allowing the student to develop critical thinking as they approach the study of science.
• There are two major projects assigned:
  • The fall project assigned to students is a guided research paper on a famous scientist.
  • The spring project is a science project demonstrating an IPC concept covered during the year.

Homework: 1+ hour / day.
