The vocabulary and subject matter of science is all around us and forms part of our daily conversations in math, history, geography, and all the various language arts studies. Observation, hypothesis, experimentation, data collection and analysis, and the forming of conclusions begins at a very early age and is an integral part of critical thinking, problem solving and communication.
We love science in 6th grade - whether it be designing the procedures to build our own crates, the exploration of the cosmos, the atmosphere and the weather, interactions in nature, or the energy and forces that surround us. Science is a subject which should kindle passion from the heart, not just the intellect. For specific details and links on the units covered, please click on the appropriate pull-down menu item. |
