Welcome to Seventh Grade Science The state curriculum focuses on the theme of “structure,” from atoms and cells to the earth and whales.

We will explore five main units  Nature of matter  Earth’s crust and interior  Structure and function of cells  Heredity or Genetics  Classification

Nature of Matter  Motion in molecules  Heat and molecules  Solid, liquid, and gas

Structure of Rocks and Minerals  Experiment with properties of minerals  Learn how rocks and minerals form.  Study materials of different densities.

Models of Earth  Research past ideas and theories about earth.  Discover how today’s scientists study earth.

The Shaping of Earth’s Crust  Plate tectonics  Volcanoes  Earthquakes  Erosion

Cell Theory  Research history of cells  Show all life is made of cells  Cells only come from other cells

Structure and function of cells  Plant and animal cells  Parts of the cell  What cells do

Levels of Structure Cells TissuesOrgan Organ SystemOrganism

Heredity  DNA the code of life

Classification  Distinguish between living, non-living, and dead  Five kingdoms of life  Learn to identify with classification keys

Monera and Protist Kingdoms

Fungi Kingdom

Plant Kingdom

Animal Kingdom

I can’t wait to get started Science Rules
