Seventh Grade Physics

Seventh grade physics continues where sixth grade left off. This year, we make greater use of the scientific method. Main lesson book work may be augmented with longer research reports and biographies. This year we focus on the study of mechanics, including the six simple machines as the basis for more complex machines.
