The Study of Physics, Chemistry and Biology

Science is about discovery, where we learn about history, math, philosophy, ethics, communication, foreign languages and writing as seen from the lens of the scientific world. As you have heard, science is everywhere and affects everything. In fact, there is a type of science for everyone and I am happy to join you in your discovery of your favourite area of science as we journey through the topics of physics, chemistry and biology.

New blog for Coordinated Science

Hello,
This blog is for Ms. Pacion's Coordinated Science course.  I will be using the blog to update students and parents as to what subjects we are working on in class, and what assignments will be utilised to teach those subjects.
At the moment, we are finishing up the physics unit for this year.  The students are working on gravity, falling bodies and acceleration.  We are heading to the lab today and tomorrow to learn about "Acceleration Due to Gravity".  Make sure to ask your child to explain why two objects falling at the same time and with the same force will reach the ground at the same moment.
