This site will be a work in progress, with new pages being added over time.

The material here is meant to correlate with the New York State Intermediate Science Core Curriculum.

If you are from another state, many of the basic ideas and concepts will also correlate to areas of your own state or regional curriculum.

Many of the homework and lab activities are based on the following two sources:

1-Glencoe Physical Science,

2- Cambridge Physics Outlet.

For more information on these sources,just click on their names above.
