Science Inquiry and Application
During the years of grades 9 through 12, all students must use the following scientific processes with appropriate
laboratory safety techniques to construct their knowledge and understanding in all science content areas:
• Identify questions and concepts that guide scientific investigations;
• Design and conduct scientific investigations;
• Use technology and mathematics to improve investigations and communications;
• Formulate and revise explanations and models using logic and evidence (critical thinking);
• Recognize and analyze explanations and models; and
• Communicate and support a scientific argument.
Study of Matter
• Classification of matter
Heterogeneous vs. homogeneous
o Properties of matter
o States of matter and its changes
• Atoms
o Models of the atom (components)
o Ions (cations and anions)
o Isotopes
• Periodic trends of the elements
o Periodic law
o Representative groups
