Life Science Earth Science Physical Science Biology PLMS Science Paths Life Science Earth Science Physical Science Biology Jeff Jewell – 6th Grade Linda Mixell – 7th Grade Jeff Burgard – 8th Grade

Track 1 – Middle School Science 6th: Life Science Organisms - “Organisms From Macro to Micro” Genetics – “ Our Genes Our Selves” Evolution/Ecology – “Evolution/Ecology” 7th: Earth Science Fundamentals of light: “Light: Part 1” Earth Systems: “Catastrophic Events” Solar System: “Earth In Space” 8th: Physical Science Physics of light: “Light: Part 2” Basic physics: “Energy, Machines and Motion” Basic Chemistry: “Properties of Matter”

Science Paths… Grade Level Science Path I Science Path II 6 Life Science Earth Science 7 Physical Science 8 Biology 9 Physics or Chemistry 10 Lab Methods 11 ? 12

Required for High School Graduation Chemistry/Physics Lab Methods Grade Level Math Path II (2 years of HS Calculus) Science Path 2 6 Integrated Algebra A Earth Science 7 Integrated Algebra B Physical Science 8 Geometry Biology 9 Required for High School Graduation Algebra 2 Pre-Calculus or IB Math 1 10 11 Calculus or IB Math 2 12 Advanced Calculus, IB Math 3, AP Statistics or possible travel for additional math courses Chemistry/Physics Lab Methods Chemistry/Physics Chemistry/Physics Chemistry/Physics

Required for High School Graduation Physics/Chemistry Lab Methods Grade Level Math Path I (1 year of HS Calculus) Science Path 2 6 Integrated Pre-Algebra Topics Earth Science 7 Integrated Algebra A Physical Science 8 Integrated Algebra B Biology 9 Required for High School Graduation Algebra 1 Geometry 10 Algebra 2 11 Pre-Calculus or IB Math 1 12 Pre-Calculus or Advanced Algebra Functions and Trigonometry Calculus or IB Math 2 or Statistics Physics/Chemistry Lab Methods Chemistry/Physics Chemistry/Physics

Things to Consider… Academic Requirements Motivation and challenge 8th grade biology book is 10 grade reading level Algebra II skills will be essential Motivation and challenge No courses will be “dumbed down” Possible low level of success: C’s and D’s are possible Maturity and comfort level Possibly not with grade level peers Cautious and careful behaviors essential

Recommendation… Look at the MSP Scores from 4th grade; Students should be > 430 on reading Students should be > 500 on math

Can my student change back to Track 1 once they have begun Track 2? Students can only change back if they are receiving an “F”. If they are successful until biology and fail biology as an 8th grader, can they retake biology in high school? Yes, they can retake biology in high school. Passing the End of Course (EOC) Biology Test is required to pass high school However: The grade will go on the high school transcript and will count toward overall high school GPA
