PERIOD #4 SCIENCE 6

Class Introduction:

In 6th grade science, students will be exploring concepts through inquiry-based, hands-on experiences that will extend their natural fascination with the world and help them learn science skills and concepts that they will need in their later schooling and in life. In addition, we will also be practicing writing in science, note taking and other graphic organizers, record keeping, and proper laboratory decorum. Students in 6th grade at Clark Middle School, will be using brand new science curriculum kits, called the Foss Science Kit. Only the best for our students! We have moved to include not only Response to Instruction (RTI) strategies but have also included the Common Core Standards that have been adopted by the Anchorage School District. This year, in addition to science, students will also be learning the ASD 6th grade health curriculum using Teen Health textbooks. Health will be taught on Fridays through out the school year.
