Chemistry, Physics, & Weather
The 8th grade curriculum explores concepts of chemistry, physics, and the atmosphere. We begin the year with a review of the scientific process, which provides a foundation for scientific thinking utilized throughout the year. Once the scientific foundation is in place, students use it to explore the basics of chemistry. We then change gears to explore the physical world and laws that affect it. Our year concludes with a study of the atmosphere and forces that drive local and global weather patterns.
