MS General Science

TAUGHT BY

Traci Fleming

6th-8th

This course covers the fundamental aspects of five science subjects over the course of a year, using the text Exploring the Building Blocks of Science by Real Science 4 Kids. The Building Blocks Series is based on an upward-spiral teaching method where the 5 core disciplines (chemistry, biology, physics, geology, and astronomy) are repeatedly visited and built upon over the year. Students will gain laboratory skills doing “hands-on” experiments, experience collecting data, drawing and evaluating conclusions, and a deeper understanding by exploring connections between science and history, philosophy, technology, and critical thinking. There is a $20 lab fee for this course.
