Rationale:<br />

Science at the sixth grade level is important in that it provides the students the opportunity to discover the chemical and physical<br />

properties of matter with relation to change, to investigate life processes and systems of living organisms, to experiment with and<br />

understands the various forms of energy. Concepts introduced in sixth grade area vital in that they serve as the building blocks for<br />

increasingly more complex investigations in the later years.<br />

The sixth grade science curriculum will reinforce basic science concepts introduced in the elementary grades, introduce higher level<br />

science concepts and vocabulary, and provide for a transition from elementary science to middle school science.<br />
