 In fourth grade Science we will be focusing on Life Science, Earth Science and Physical Science. Students will become active learners as they learn to explore, explain and extend the concepts that are taught. Students will be engaged by text learning, cooperative learning, experimentation and reflection. This multi-methodical approach to learning fosters all learning styles and creates a fun and engaging curriculum. The following is a brief overview of some of the topics we will be learning this year. Some units will be focused on in more depth than others. Unit A: Organization of Living Things Life Processes Human Body Systems Life Cycles Responses of Living Things Unit B: Ecosystems Parts of Ecosystems Matter and Energy in Ecosystems Adaptation and Extinction Unit C: The Solid Earth Forces that Shape Earth’s Surface Managing Earth’s Resources Unit D: The Atmosphere & Beyond Using Weather Data Looking at the Universe Unit E: The Nature of Matter Properties of Matter How Matter Changes  Unit F: Energy & Motion Energy Changes Electricity & Magnetism Motions and Machines
