Throughout the course of the year, we will have the
opportunity to explore the following through a variety
of scientific investigations:
- Plants and Animals (habitats, ecosystems, energy)
- A System in the Sky (Earth, Moon, and Sun)
- Properties of Matter (experiments with matter)
We will also begin to explore the Next Generation Science Standards listed below:
From Molecules to Organisms: Structures and Processes
Ecosystems: Interactions, Energy, and Dynamics
Heredity: Inheritance and Variation of Traits
Biological Evolution: Unity and Diversity
Earth’s Systems
Earth and Human Activity
Motion and Stability: Forces and Interactions
Engineering Design
