Welcome to Middle School Science! (6-8)
Welcome to the wonderful world of Science! This year students learn to apply scientific concepts, principles and theories to understand the physical world and the living environment.
How will students reach their goals?
Learning is achieved through hands on activities, which are enriched by appropriate use of technology (computer lab, Ipads, science apps). We want every child to “Think like a Scientist!”
The Science Connection!
Students will be encouraged to search for new answers, and relate their newly found knowledge to other situations, in and out of school. Students will find that Science is connected to other classes (ELA, Math, Social Studies, even Physical Education)!
As we move from sixth to eighth grade, students become more independent and our lab activities will grow in depth. Understanding what makes a good experiment is key!
The scientific method, measurement, and lab safety . This course of study, which is aligned with New York State learning standards for science, prepares students to explain, accurately and in appropriate depth, the most important ideas about our physical setting and our living environment.
