Science
Science is taught through the series Science Dimensions and encompasses the scientific method and lab demonstrations. Students learn about engineering and technology; energy and how it is transferred; sound and light waves; plant and animal structure and function; changes to earth’s surface; rocks and fossils; and natural resources and hazards.
The class focuses on weather, water cycles, rocks, and minerals found in Utah. Students also learn about the science of health and how to keep healthy through good diet and exercise. Students create two projects during the year to practice the scientific process and participate in the Young Scientist program.
She also has STEM Fridays, they team up with 3rd grade and do activities in groups with students from both grades.
Ms. Johnson’s science class isn’t just about learning science from a book, we actually get to test them in class. Some of the science projects we do are absolutely mind blowing. I love science thanks to Ms. Johnson.
