Course Overview


Science matters! In this course, you’ll investigate the properties of matter, including matter and energy in living systems and the environment. You’ll also learn about energy transfer technologies and complete lab activities using common household materials.

This Grade 7 Science course was designed to work with the Science in Action 7 textbook. There are notations for textbook readings from the ScienceFocus textbook, so the course could be aligned to that textbook, if desired. In that case, modifications would need to be made to quiz question banks to ensure all the questions relate to topics addressed in that textbook.

This course has a standard schedule for every week: 1 green lesson book of online and textbook readings, 3 formative assignments, and 1 multiple choice quiz. Each unit also has a big unit exam and unit project. All quizzes in the first 3 units of this course are multiple choice, but short answer quiz options have been added for Units 4 and 5.
