About 7th Grade Science

Seventh grade science is focused on Earth Science and Astronomy. Our course is currently organized into six main units:


  1. Weather and Climate

  2. Earth's Systems

  3. Plate Tectonics

  4. Earth's History

  5. Minerals and Rocks

  6. Astronomy


Students will also work on a Science Fair project, starting around early-January and running until around mid-May.


We strive as much as possible to have science be a "hands-on" activity. Coursework will include lab activities, activities designed by the teachers, and work in more "traditional" textbooks and workbooks.
