Overview
Explore the principles that govern motion, matter, energy, and electricity.
The Grade VI Physics syllabus introduces fundamental concepts across various branches of physics. The chart below illustrates the relative emphasis on key learning outcomes:
Distinguish between scalar and vector quantities and apply them in context- Measure and calculate speed, velocity, and acceleration in various motion scenarios
- Understand how forces affect motion, and apply Newton’s laws using diagrams and formulas
- Explore mass, weight, and density, and calculate each using standard equations
- Apply the principles of energy conservation and calculate work done and power
- Identify solids, liquids, and gases based on their particle structures and behaviour
- Understand melting, boiling, and evaporation through kinetic particle theory
- Investigate light reflection, refraction, dispersion, and lens behaviour
- Know the electromagnetic spectrum and the characteristics of its regions
- Learn about magnetic fields, permanent magnets, and simple magnetic interactions
- Understand electric charge, current, potential difference, and circuit behaviour
- Construct and analyse series and parallel circuits using circuit diagrams

Assessment and Practice
Each unit concludes with a targeted test or consolidation session, followed by structured revision and timed practice. Mid-year and end-of-year mock exams reinforce skills in formula application, practical reasoning, and conceptual linkage. Emphasis is placed on strengthening confidence in calculations, graphical interpretation, and multiple representations of physical phenomena.
Course Structure Overview
This structured plan covers core physics topics from motion and forces to electricity and magnetism, incorporating regular tests and consolidation weeks for strong conceptual understanding.
