Mrs. Laura Ragas

6th Grade Physical Science

During the first semester we will be working on:

Unit 1: Building a Better Scientist
The students will develop a foundation of science skills that include measurement, classification, investigative procedures, safe science practices, documenting science observations, and working in cooperative groups.

Unit 2:
Students will develop and strengthen their ability to identify and discriminate between physical and chemical properties of matter. Developing the student's ability to measure matter correctly is also a necessity when building science concepts. Students will develop an understanding of the relationship between mass, volume, and density.
