"For Science Week, we looked at the amount of energy in Cheezels. I was surprised by how much fire came out of one single Cheezel!"
What does the course entail?
|
In Year 8, students use experimentation to determine relationships between components in systems and explain these relationships through increasingly complex representations. They make predictions and propose explanations, drawing on evidence to support their views while considering other points of view. CHEMISTRY Students begin to develop their understanding of atomic structures and explore matter at a particle level. Students will also observe and explain the differences between chemical and physical changes. PHYSICS Students develop their understanding of the flow of energy and begin to classify different forms of energy. They describe the role of energy in causing change in simple systems. BIOLOGICAL SCIENCE Students are introduced to cells as microscopic structures within living things. They begin to explore the interaction and flow of energy within ecosystems. EARTH AND SPACE SCIENCE Students develop classification and observation skills within the study of the rock cycle and learn about the role of a Geologist. |
