This class is an introduction to the physical sciences including basic chemistry, geology, astronomy and physics. These sciences make the world go around and having a strong introduction in the field will help students succeed later on with their science studies.
Instructional strategies include modeling exercises, laboratory experiments, virtual labs, projects, class discussions, and problem-solving exercises.
At the end of this course, students will be able to
- Demonstrate specific knowledge about scientific concepts and themes
- Evaluate scientific claims and issues that affect daily life
- Critically read scientific material
- Communicate effectively about physical science subjects
NOTE: This class must reach the minimum of five students by August 20th to run. If we do not reach this minimum, parents will be notified via email.
