Our sequence Our Vision BHS Science Our sequence Our Vision

Our Vision All students will learn from their mistakes, and will be encouraged by their mistakes. All students will have every opportunity to learn at the highest level. All students will be treated as a future scientist, and will be explicitly shown examples of the diversity of past and present scientists and engineers.

Our Sequence Why is Physics First? How do we accomplish this? Best taught to younger students with fewer mathematical obstacles We introduce students to the beauty of estimation Science is not a definitive series of facts, and we are are having students design their own experiments Physics is more concrete than chemistry and biology How do we accomplish this? We let technology do any Calculus for us Fun not ‘Formulas’ More projects Start with waves, end with kinematics

Our Sequence Chemistry in 10th grade Building on concepts of… Force and Motion Electrostatic Interactions Data analysis Energy Leading to more complicated problem solving Greater level of abstract thought and spatial reasoning Include more topics of social and environmental impact

Our Sequence Biology in 11th Grade Building on the major concepts of… Chemical bonding Energy We are able to teach with more accuracy and rigor We are able to teach with more interdisciplinary topics Bio ethics Climate Change Students are ready for the most abstract concepts More Biochemical discoveries every day

Our Sequence Optional Courses Anatomy and Physiology Drawing for Understanding Field Science All AP Subjects Physics 1 & 2 Advanced Topics in Biology Physics C Mechanics and E&M Body/Mind Honor Environmental Science Forensics Chemistry Genetics Biology Marine Biology Engineering Environmental Science & Society Engineering by Design Engineering Innovate & Design Astronomy

Physics I Physics I is a rigorous course designed for students who want a solid foundation in physics. The course is designed for students interested in science. Students will have opportunities to go in more depth with optional extensions. Students who have been successful in Physics I are well prepared to take AP Physics in their senior year, and may become science majors in college.

Physics I Honor Physics I Honor covers the same content as Physics I but with more mathematical applications.
