These are various materials that I have shared.

Physics 1

Every curriculum has a different list of topics for a high school physics class. On my website, "Physics 1" is mechanics (including fluids), following the 2024 AP^® Course & Exam Description. Other topics are included in Physics 2.

• Physics 1 Notes (single PDF document, 573 pp.)
  Reorganized to include only mechanics (including fluid mechanics) based on the 2024 AP Physics 1 CED.
  Note that edits will continue to happen over the course of the school year.
• Physics 1 Notes by topic (individual PDF files)
• Kinematics Equations scratch paper (PDF document)
• Blank Energy Bar Charts, aka "LOL charts" (MS Word document)
• Human Free-Body Diagram Apparatus write-up/specifications (PDF document)

Physics 2

Every curriculum has a different list of topics for a high school physics class. On my website, "Physics 2" includes heat & thermodynamics, electricity & magnetism, waves & optics (both geometric and physical), and atomic, particle & nuclear physics, following the 2024 AP^® Course & Exam Description. Mechanics is included in Physics 1.

• Physics 2 Notes (single PDF document, 460 pp.)
  These notes are currently in the middle of revision to the 2024 AP Physics 2 CED. The first half of the notes have been updated (through Unit 10: Electric Force, Field & Potential). Almost all of the rest of the content is in the notes (other than a few additions that are still needed), but the Learning Objectives and Essential Knowledge for those sections have not yet been updated..
• Physics 2 Notes by topic (individual PDF files) ← Note: These are still from the old notes.
• Coulomb Force Apparatus using a Van de Graaff generator & inertial balance (PDF document)
• Mystery Series & Parallel Circuits Apparatus write-up/specifications (PDF document)

Chemistry

• Chemistry 1 Notes (single PDF document, 566 pp.)
• Customizable Periodic Table (MS Excel spreadsheet)
• Lewis Structure Dominoes (MS Word document)

Experimental Design

• Teaching Experimental Design in Middle and High School Classes (PDF document, 111 pp.)
• Experimental Design Template, Quantitative (MS Word document)
• Experimental Design Template, Qualitative (MS Word document)
• Lab Write-Up Template ("click & type" MS Word document)
• Lab Write-Up Rubric, Quantitative (MS Word document)
• Lab Write-Up Rubric, Qualitative (MS Word document)

Miscellaneous

• Grade Scaling Spreadsheet (MS Excel spreadsheet)
• Instructions for Grade Scaling Spreadsheet (PDF document)
