SHELTERED GENERAL SCIENCE
Course Number: ESY-2001/2002 Credit: 1.0 credit
Required/Elective: Elective Grade Level: Open to grade 9-10
Length: One semester Prerequisite: None
Lab science
Not all colleges will accept this course for admission.
Students in this course will gain knowledge about hypothesis-based science in various general content. This course will introduce students to the basic unit of life through plant and animal cells and carry them through to the characteristics of life that surround them daily. Human body basics will be explored and how humans and the choices they make can have an impact on the environment. This will lead students into learning about topics such as basic chemistry and elements, properties, and physics, where principles such as matter, energy, force, and motion are explored.
