McGraw. Focus on Physical Science

Glencoe/McGraw-Hill, 2007. — 665 p. — ISBN13: 978-0-07-879440-7.The science curriculum in grade eight emphasizes the study of physical sciences. Students in grade eight study topics in physical sciences, such as motion, forces, and the structure of matter, by using a quantitative, mathematically based approach similar to the procedures they will use in high school. Earth, the solar system, chemical reactions, the chemistry of biological processes, the periodic table, and density and buoyancy are additional topics that will be treated with increased mathematical rigor, again in anticipation of high school courses.Motion and Forces
