MIch elle Posted December 23, 2011 Share Posted December 23, 2011 Did you look at HippoCampus physics? http://www.hippocampus.org/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcconnellboys Posted December 23, 2011 Share Posted December 23, 2011 Here are a couple of things: http://www.science-class.net/Physics/force_motion.htm http://mypages.iit.edu/~smile/physinde.html http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/High_school_physics ...and there's another great site, but I'm coming up blank on it right now. I'll try to come up with it later.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haiku Posted December 24, 2011 Share Posted December 24, 2011 Physics for Kids? Tara Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcconnellboys Posted December 25, 2011 Share Posted December 25, 2011 No, I forgot that one, LOL! That one is better for younger kids anyway. The one I'm thinking of is geared more toward high schoolers. I think I have it saved on my desktop, but I keep getting on here from my laptop, so I don't have access to it right now....

Free Posted December 25, 2011 Share Posted December 25, 2011 None as open and go as the ACS publications. But I did find some useful online resources and courses: http://www.physicsclassroom.com/ The Physics Front Physics for the 21st Century http://www.physicscentral.com/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

5 Hikers Posted December 25, 2011 Author Share Posted December 25, 2011 Thanks for the links. I hate pbysics and I am looking for a good program, I don't want to bias my son. I understand physics, but I just don't like it. I had to take advanced Calculus based Physics in College, it was awful. I knew it to pass the course, but I don't get how if I make a sharp right turn in the car that my body leans but it is not moving it is the car moving out from underneath me.

mcconnellboys Posted December 26, 2011 Share Posted December 26, 2011 I have a couple of teacher's editions of the Prentice Hall middle school science series that cover physics topics. I would not recommend these to someone who does not know something about the subject already as I've been told that they contain quite a few errors, but it seems that you are familiar enough with the subject to be able to overcome that little problem. I've been using them mainly for the problems they contain to go along with out force and motion studies (and we'll be using the one on sound and light later).... http://www.betterworldbooks.com/prentice-hall-science-explorer-motion-forces-and-energy-teachers-edition-motion-forces-and-energy-id-0134345738.aspx http://www.alibris.com/search/books/qwork/-13054103/used/Sound%20and%20Light%20%28Prentice%20Hall%20Science%20Explorer%29 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heart'sjoy Posted December 27, 2011 Share Posted December 27, 2011 We're using these free lesson/ lab videos with a "free" paperbackswap copy of conceptual physics. This is for our middle school science. The teacher materials include tests, quizes, and all the answers to the onnline worksheets are about 30$.
