Through this unit, students become aware of human-produced chemical substances that enter and interact with environments, and they investigate potential impacts of different substances on the distribution andabundance of living things.
Using a problem-solving approach, students create and modify circuits to meet a variety of needs. Students also develop skills for evaluating technologies, by comparing alternative designs and by considering their efficiency, effectiveness and environmental impact.
A study of space exploration provides an opportunity for students to examine how science and technology interact and to learn how one process augments the other.
