Science from A to M

Science from A to M

In this one-semester course, we investigate eponymous laws that have made significant contributions in science and technology, in alphabetical order. We learn about the scientists behind the laws, the laws themselves and their practical application in our everyday life. This course is a great way to better understand our world around us through science. A broad range to scientific disciplines is covered in this course including astronomy, anatomy, biology, chemistry, engineering, genetics, and physics. The course is partially project based, with students completing a corresponding project at the end of each letter unit. A sampling of topics covered includes the Atomic Theory and the Atomic Bomb, the Birth of our Universe and the Big Bang Theory, Cell Theory and Cancer, Darwin’s Theory of Evolution, Forces, Friction and Gravity, Human Body systems.
