Science Units
Science is integrated into the STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math) curriculum. There are three science units in the second grade curriculum.
|
1. Waves- In this unit, students will explore sound and light.
2. Matter and Its Interactions- This is an engineering unit. Students will work to test materials in order to build a support structure for a bridge. They will learn about the properties and materials, fair testing, and how materials react.
3. Earth Systems- We will look at the Chesapeake Bay to find a solution to prevent erosion, while also learning about how landforms change.
