This class is designed to offer your child a hands-on, interactive year of discovery and serves as a launching point into PREP's comprehensive science program. Looking through a biblical lens, students will develop an appreciation of God as Creator as they study Earth (solar system, weather, rocks and minerals), Life (cells, plants, animals, ecosystems), and Physical Sciences (matter, force, electricity).

The lessons will be centered around a weekly reading assignment, as well as pages to be completed in the student activity manual.  Your child will participate in class discussions, group and individual activities, STEM activities, and experiments.

Quizzes will be given after the appropriate section under the teacher’s discretion.  Tests will be given at the end of each unit.  Tests may be given at home or in  the classroom, depending on what is going on in class that week.

Required texts and materials (provided by parents): 

Please have materials in hand at least one week before classes start.

Other supplies required will be detailed at the PREP Orientation.

In this class, students will study various aspects of physical, life and earth sciences including earthquakes and volcanoes, weather and erosion, natural resources, cells and organisms, animal and plant classification, matter and energy, electricity and magnetism, the solar system, stars and constellations, plant and animal reproduction, heredity, the nervous system and the immune system. Each topic is discussed within a Biblical worldview. Students will develop critical thinking skills through the application of scientific knowledge in experiments, demonstrations, small group activities, discussions, lab manual worksheets and special projects.  The last project of the year will be an in-class Science Fair.
