Forces & Motion
Speed, forces, gravity and how things move
The Physical World strand of Junior Cycle Science, taught one-to-one - forces, energy, electricity, light and sound, plus the maths that goes with them.
There is no separate Junior Cycle subject called Physics. It is the Physical World strand of Junior Cycle Science, taken by all students at Common Level, and these sessions target it directly.
The recurring problem here is not physics but arithmetic. Students understand that a force causes acceleration and then lose the marks rearranging the formula or mishandling the units. We diagnose which of the two is actually wrong before teaching anything, because the remedies are completely different.
The strand also carries a lot of graph work - reading, drawing and interpreting - which is worth reliable marks and transfers to Maths and Geography as well.
Physics is the Physical World strand of Junior Cycle Science rather than a subject in its own right - it separates out at Leaving Certificate.
