The Science 08 at LSS provides a general overview of Science at a pace suitable to the abilities of the class. Students are provided with opportuunities to develop positive attitudes toward science and to develop the skills and processes of science. Click here to download the pdf file of the Science 08 Course Outline including the Ministry of Education Prescribed Learning Outcomes as well as the Course Content. of the Science 08 course. All students are required to achieve 100% on a lab safety exam before being permitted to participate in laboratory experiences. |
