US Grade 5 - 8
During the weekly science labs, we will explore a variety of scientific topics with hands-on experiments. We will experiment with Biology (plants/leaves), (cultures and yeast), and (biomolecules), Chemistry (pH and protein denaturation), (mixtures), and (boiling and melting point), Physics (pendulums), (magnetism), (aerodynamics), and (buoyancy), Genetics (DNA extraction) and (chi square), and Earth Science (water cycle) and (water filtration). Depending on how the experiments run, there...
Learners may wish to have a laboratory notebook and pencil for all labs.
