7th Grade Science
Welcome to junior high 7th graders! The science curriculum this year consists of one semester of physical science with Mr. Findley and one semester of life science with me. In life science we will be learning basic concepts of life in order to better understand the world around us.
8th Grade Science
The first big project for the 8th graders is the ever-popular insect collection that is part of our study of life science. We continue learning about the living world by studying cells, monerans, protists, fungi, plants and animals. And yes...there is a dissection.
