Course Description:
In Grade 3 Science, students learn that energy and matter have multiple forms and can be changed from one form to another; light has a source and travels in a direction; adaptations in physical structure or behavior may improve an organism’s chance for survival; and objects in the sky move in regular and predictable patterns. Students also repeat observations to improve accuracy, differentiate evidence from opinion, and collect and analyze data to develop a logical conclusion.
