Middle School Physics: It will introduce basic concepts in force, motion, work, energy, charge, electricity, circuit, magnetism, heat, behavior of gas and liquid, waves and optics, and help to learn the basic problem-solving skills in those subjects. Real world examples and applications will be introduced and discussed to develop students' interest in physics and help to construct their analytical skills with scientific logic.

It is perfect for rising 6th up to rising 9th grade students who want to have a clear understanding of some very basic physics concepts and want to be fully prepared for taking high school physics courses. It covers also everything needed for students who want to participate in or do better in physics related events in the popular middle school Science Olympiad. Equally important, it also prepares students, with the early bird advantage, for participating in national level physics competition such as USAPHO (similar to the better known USAMO-USA Math Olympiad) once they get into high school.

There are 5 parts in the whole complete course that are scheduled at different time and are offered in rotation. They can be taken independently from each other solely based on your schedule.

1. Mechanics: study motion, mass, forces (weight, supporting force, tension, friction), balance of forces, simple machines (pulley, lever, wheel and axle, inclined plane, wedge, screw, gear), work, power, and energy.

2. Thermal Science: study state of matters, density, pressure, buoyancy force, absolute temperature , ideal gas, T-P-V relations, engine, methods of heat transfer, melting, evaporation, thermal equilibrium, and fluid flow.

3. Electricity: study origin of charge, charge transfer, Coulomb's law, electrical field, resistance, current, voltage, Ohm's law, circuit, energy flow in circuit and applications.

4. Magnetism: study magnet, magnetic interaction, magnetic field, moving charge in magnetic field, Faraday's law of induction, Lenz's principle, motor, electric generator and electromagnetic wave

5. Optics: study origin of light, speed of light, reflection, refraction, optical lens, ray optics, light waves, diffraction, superposition, interference, and light scattering.
