Greetings Parents and Guardians,
The students at P.S 274 are learning many amazing things in Science!
2nd Grade is working on their Plant Adaptations unit. In this unit, students explore the needs of plants through hands-on investigations. They explore how and why plants disperse their seeds, what those seeds need in order to grow, and what the adult plants need in order to survive and thrive.
3rd Grade is studying Forces, Motion, and Magnets. In this unit, students explore the forces all around them. They investigate the effects of balanced and unbalanced forces, the pushes and pulls of bridge structures, and the effects of gravity and friction on the motion of objects. Students also explore the power of magnetic forces and design solutions to everyday problems using their knowledge of these forces.
4th Grade is beginning work on their Energy and Energy Transfer Unit. In this unit, students explore energy! Students investigate how energy is stored, how it can make objects move, and how collisions transfer energy between objects.
5th Grade has started their Web of Life unit. In this unit, students explore how organisms depend on one another and form an interconnected ecosystem. Students investigate food chains, food webs, and the importance of producers, consumers, and decomposers.
