Science

In the ABEL program we will be working on Grade 8 and Grade 9 science outcomes in order to prepare for the transition to grade 10 and 11 courses. In addition to the grade 8 & 9 curriculum, students in the ABEL program will be provided with lessons and activities from the Science First Peoples Resource Guide. 

 

We will be using project-based learning, experiments and place-based learning as our primary learning models for this course.  Students will be expected to:

• form a hypothesis

• make observations

• take measurements

• record observations and data

• analyze data

• identify patterns and relationships

• find connections between traditional and contemporary knowledge

• make conclusions

• communicate ideas and findings

• reflect on learning

• apply First Peoples perspectives and viewpoints
