In science classes, students will apply scientific concepts to construct explanations about the environment they live in. For middle school students, lessons will focus on discovery through a hands-on, inquiry-based approach to learning. In middle school, students will learn appropriate scientific practices, which include scientific reading and writing.
We will also be going on field trips to the Marine Mammal Center, a Bay Cruise, and other locations around San Francisco to allow us to study concepts we are learning in class in the real world.
