The seventh grade year focuses on life science. Students will refine their skills in observing, collecting data and interpreting data while studying a variety of organisms. They are expected to come to their own conclusions and share those findings with classmates as if they were professional scientists.
The year is guided by the following essential questions:
- What does it mean to be alive?
- How do living things maintain homeostasis and stay alive?
- How do traits get passed down from one generation to the next?
- Why are there so many different types of living things on planet Earth?
- Where did life come from? How did life evolve?
- In what ways is the human body ideally adapted to life’s needs? In what ways is it not?
