Once registered, anticipate contact regarding placement evaluations from instructors by May 15th and throughout the summer. Students must be enrolled to enter the placement process. Early placement exams may allow time for tutoring or additional review based on the outcomes. See more about placement evaluations in our Student-Parent Handbook.

Physics Modeling Nature is a preparatory course for 11-12th grade students who aspire to pursue a technical career. Students who will be taking physics in college toward a stem degree will want to take this course to provide a big picture without the demands of Calculus. It is similar to the AP Physics 1 and 2 courses developed by the College Board. Students should have completed Algebra I and have a basic knowledge of Trigonometry to use this book. Additionally, Modeling Nature will incorporate the essential historical background to enhance awareness of the legacy and present-day community of scientists.
Students must read the text, take notes, memorize, and be able to express themselves through essay questions and written laboratory reports. They must have the maturity to study regularly and keep pace with the course.
Students enrolled in this course will complete Quantitative Laboratory Experiments and written reports that adhere to a specific rubric for scientific writing. The student completing this course earns one high school course credit.
Required Materials: Books and supplies are not included in the purchase of the course. These resources are listed to help inform your decision-making as you make course selections and build your course schedule. Please reach out to the instructor if you have any questions about materials.
Sherry Joslin earned her BS in Electrical Engineering from the University of Arkansas and holds a MA in Science and Religion from Biola University. She and her husband Brian live just south of Forth Worth in Burleson, Tx.
With over 12 years of experience in the classroom and as a homeschool mom, she has taught every grade K through 12th. Her classroom experience includes Logic, AP Physics, Honors Geometry, Algebra, Singapore Math and more. Prior to teaching, Sherry worked in Mission Control as a NASA engineer. When asked why she left, she explains that children are far more complicated than space shuttles, and that her greatest accomplishment has been in the role of mentoring and educating her three children who are living for Christ as young adults.
Sherry is passionate about showing students how the relationship between faith and science is not one of conflict but of qualified agreement; and before attending university, students should be confident that the Christian worldview provides a coherent understanding of both reality and their place in it as children of God.
