Course 1: Physical Science
In 7th Grade Physical Science, we are exploring our surroundings - from our everyday lives to the Earth where we live to our solar system to the universe - and discovering how things work. The main topics for the year are Earth and its Neighborhood, Chemical Building Blocks, and Amusement Park Physics.

Course 2: Engineering the Future
This course explores the relationships between science, engineering, and technology. The course is project-based, with a major project in every unit. The four main units are Creators of the Designed World, Sustainable Cities, Go With the Flow, and Power to Communicate.
