8th Grade Earth Science

Hello 8th Grade Parents and Students,

Eighth grade Earth Science is a year-long course that explores Earth systems and space science through the use of science and engineering practices. We will build knowledge of the nature and history of science as the foundation of understanding how the Earth and its systems function and Earth’s place in the Universe. In this class, we cover a variety of topics including geologic and deep time, rocks and minerals, plate tectonics, weather and climate, and astronomy, among others. The class culminates in a field trip to Mary’s Peak where students have the opportunity to extend and enhance understanding and appreciation of the content.
