CPO Physical Science Investigations and Student Book

CPO Physical Science Investigations and Student Book refers to the CPO Science middle school physical science program, which combines a consumable student text with guided inquiry investigations and lab equipment. Developed by CPO Science, now part of School Specialty, the curriculum emphasizes hands on experiments that introduce motion, forces, energy, waves, and matter in a conceptual, inquiry driven way. The student book includes clear explanations, diagrams, and data tables tied to each lab. Families who obtain used sets or PDFs use CPO as a rigorous, experiment first physical science course for grades six to eight, often appreciating the strong connections between math, graphs, and real phenomena.
