Earth and Space Science (ESS) is a year-long course for 11th and 12th graders. It is a thematic course targeting three areas: Earth through space and time, Earth structure, and dynamic Earth. It will largely be project based, applying the skills and knowledge from previous courses and connecting them to Earth and its systems.
Students are expected to come prepared for class. This means that they have:
Charged iPad

Pens/pencils
Colored pencils/markers
