Or why you sound so good when you sing in the shower?

Perhaps you’ve wondered why your face is upside down when you look in a spoon?

Wes Olson answers those questions and more in Physics 101 , the high school science curriculum by Westfield Studios. 

If you don’t consider yourself a science geek and feel a little intimidated when it comes to teaching physics, this course may be just what you need.

The program includes four DVDs that contain more than 11 hours of content, including:

Disc A
1. Introduction to Physics

One of the disks includes a PDF guidebook with quizzes and discussion questions covering the material presented in each segment.

It’s wonderful to simply pop in a DVD and let Mr. Olson take your students on a journey into God’s amazing universe. They will learn about Newton’s laws and the complex concepts behind quantum mechanics. He will teach you and your children about the physics of light, sound, heat, electricity, motion, and more.

You’ll also explore the life of famous scientists Isaac Newton and Albert Einstein.
