Description: An introduction to science for middle school students that lays the foundation for more advanced science studies. Students are skillfully and confidently led by a master science teacher and become knowledgeable about the people, places, and concepts central to the history of medicine, earth science, and astronomy. Three texts from the Tiner science series are used: the history of medicine, earth science, and astronomy. Students will need to devote 30-40 minutes per day for this class. The assessment will primarily be based on attendance, participation, unit tests, weekly quizzes, and six low-cost experiments/projects (two per book).
Grade Level: 6-7
Prerequisites: None
Required Materials: The History of Medicine, Exploring Planet Earth, and Exploring the World of Astronomy. Students will also need a USB headset (built-in microphones also work).
