Welcome to OLA Science!
Welcome to the Grade 8 Science page for OLA. The sciences are a vital part of our ongoing life as learners. Throughout the course of this 2015-2016 school year, students will learn to challenge the world around them and explore a deeper understanding behind the technologies they use today. They will be asked to explore their own personal beliefs and challenge them with their new found learning. Science, it is where we grow!
Grade 8 Science
The Grade 8 Science program has a deep exploration of the environment and the world we live in by exploring each unit from the inside out. We will explore how the matter we interact with each day works to the inside of our bodies and its various incredible systems. Throughout the year, we will explore the following units as we build our own personal scientific philosophy towards the world. Will we be contributors, distributors or rehabilitators?
Each unit will consist of 2 months of learning and culminate in a final exam!
Unit 1 Mix & Flow of Matter
Unit 2 Cells & Systems
Unit 3 Light & Optical Systems
Unit 4 Mechanical Systems
Unit 5 Fresh & Salt water Systems
