Our Elementary Science follows the Next Generation Instructional Model and standards where our students connect and engage, investigate and explore, synthesize with explanation and elaboration allowing our students to demonstrate their understanding and knowledge that allows us to evaluate their learning. Not only does our science units address the next generation standards it also incorporates ELA standards and Math standards in many of the units of study.
