This home education lesson plan explores the Schrödinger Equation and the strange world of quantum physics, where particles behave like waves. Using clear explanations and interactive tasks, it helps learners understand wavefunctions, probabilities, and real-life uses of quantum mechanics maths. Ideal for ages 8–16, with full parent support and engaging activities throughout.
The Schrödinger Equation is a cornerstone of quantum mechanics. It describes how particles like electrons behave as waves, changing over time in unpredictable but mathematically precise ways. This equation helps us understand atoms, design technologies like MRI machines and lasers, and explore the deep mysteries of quantum probability, wavefunctions, and particle-wave duality in the microscopic world.
