Year 8
Science

"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 will distinguish between elements and compounds and identify metals and non-metals based on their physical properties. They identify physical and chemical changes.

PHYSICS
Students compare different forms of energy and represent transfer and transformation of energy in simple systems

BIOLOGICAL SCIENCE
Students explain the role of cell structures and organelles. They compare the structure and function of flowering plants and vertebrate systems.
​
EARTH AND SPACE SCIENCE
Students apply an understanding of the theory of plate tectonics to explain patterns of change on Earth. They compare the different processes of rock formation and classify rocks and minerals using their physical properties
