GRADE 8 PHYSICAL SCIENCE
In eighth grade students will focus on Physical science. The focus will be on the big ideas of matter and its interactions, forces and their interactions, and energy. The emphasis on matter and its interactions will be on explaining the structure, properties, and interactions of matter. For forces and interactions the emphasis is how Newton’s laws can explain and predict interactions between objects. The emphasis for energy is how energy can be transferred and conserved.
