Physics Lapbook
Energy, Forces, Light, Sound, Magnets, and So Much More
Think physics is only for geeks? Think again! Physics is a fascinating facet of science that is especially relevant to children -- pushing and pulling, falling and leaping are all components of this science. Even elementary students can benefit from a study of physics. Use this page to help you design your own physics lapbook or unit study. This page actually has material for making at least six lapbooks. Click on the link to take your directly to the subject you're looking for. Forces and ...

Why Do Things Float?
What Makes Things Float or Sink?
Why do things float? Is it true that things float better on saltwater than freshwater? And how can pumice, a kind of rock, float on water? On this page, I've created some fun videos to help you understand the answer to all these questions. By the time you're done, you'll be a flotation expert! At the end, I've got a "Why Things Float" self-test. You can take it as many times as you like! Photo Credit: JDurham

Physics Problems Solutions
Physics practice makes perfect
The best way to learn how to solve Physics problems is by practice. Sometimes a few sample problems are needed to show the way. This page features problems and fully worked solutions, grouped by topic. New problems and solutions will be added from time to time, so check back often!

A Lensography of JeremiahStanghini's Science Lenses
Science Lensography
There's just something about science that gets my blood running! In my brief time on Squidoo, I've made a number of lenses that have to do with science or scientific concepts. I decided not to include any of my Malcolm Gladwell lenses on this particular lensography because I've already got a lensography dedicated to him. Although, I do think that many of his concepts could be considered scientific. Anyways, there are a few book reviews and a lens about one of the most underrated scientists o...

Black Whole: We Are All Connected To The Stars
Another Great Work by Nassim Haramein!
I already wrote about Nassim Haramein and I wrote about his first work: Crossing The Event Horizon. I just got an email from The Resonance Project telling me that Haramein's new DVD is now out and is called: Black Whole. You can purchase it from this page or by clicking through to The Resonance Project's page. If you buy it from The Resonance Project's page, part of the proceeds will go to fund the work of Nassim Haramein, so I'd suggest buying it there. Either way, though, some of the procee...
