Science 10

The Science 10 curriculum covers topics like genetics, chemical reactions, conservation laws, energy types and transformations, and the formation of the universe, all through the lens of the following big ideas:

• DNA is the basis for the diversity of living things.

• Energy change is required as atoms rearrange in chemical processes.

• Energy is conserved, and its transformation can affect living things and the environment.

• The formation of the universe can be explained by the big bang theory.

In addition to building an understanding of these big ideas, the Science 10 curriculum helps students to develop appropriate lab skills, and ability to apply the scientific method to solve problems, and basic scientific knowledge and literacy.
