Geology

Geology:

Geology is a 10th grade science laboratory class that fulfills the “G” requirement in the UC A-G list. Throughout the year, students will study the dynamic processes that shape and change the surface and interior of the Earth. Students will learn how the different geological sciences interact with one another while incorporating other disciplines such as Chemistry, Physics, Languages, Art, and Mathematics. This class emphasizes the hands-on approach with labs and students write lab reports based on the Claim-Evidence-Reasoning format. Students will conduct a major research project each Semester to show mastery of Geological and other Science Processes.
