The science block is approximately 30 minutes every other day.
This Week In Science: The students are wrapping up analyzing the scientific method and will be starting up our next unit on Matter. We will be focusing on mixtures and solutions while utilizing our lab kits! The students will have multiple opportunities for hands on activities!
Science Year Plan
1st quarter- beginning of 2nd quarter:
*Using science notebook, printables, mixtures and solutions fossil kits we will cover the following topics:
- Science Skills- PS1-1
- Matter PS1-1, PS1-2, PS1-3, PS1-4
- Scientist Research – Computer lab
2nd quarter:
*Using science notebook & printables we will cover the following topics:
- Scientist Research- Computer lab
- Sun and other stars ESS1-1, ESS1-2
- Patterns in Nature ESS 1-2
3rd Quarter:
*Using the roller coaster unit, we will cover the following topics:
- Gravity PS2-1
- Engineering ETS1-1-3
4th Quarter:
*Using the environmental unit, detective unit, textbook, Embryology, and Science Notebook Printables, we will cover the following topics:
- Food Chains and Web PS3-1
- Animals Meet Needs LS1-1
- Ecosystems and Interdependence LS2-1
- Earth’s Atmosphere ESS2-1
- Earth’s Water Ess2-2
- Science Careers in the Environment- Computer Lab ESS3-1
*Just like in social studies, the students will be creating a few independent projects to go along with the chapters being studied.
