Conceptual Physics 1P
CP Course Syllabus: CP 1P Teacher Syllabus
Conceptual Physics is the FIRST of three courses in the NGSS science sequence.** This is a laboratory course that presents science in a meaningful and relevant manner through issues and topics surrounding work, home, society, and the environment. As designed this is an introductory science course to engage students and emphasizes problem solving, decision making, and hands on learning. Through the application of science concepts to real life situations students gain a full understanding of the role of physics, chemistry, space and earth sciences. All units with this course will satisfy one required laboratory science course with a passing grade (C or higher).
