Essential Q's:

= Region 10 Science Essential Questions = 1. Why is it important to learn, practice and apply science? 2. How can we apply scientific skills, processes, and methods of inquiry to solve real-world problems? 3. What are the important concepts and interrelationships among life, physical, earth and space sciences? More... How would I develop an experiment using the Scientific Method? What are the physical properties to be observed? What makes up an atom? How do atoms combine to form molecules and compounds? How have microscopes aided in the study of atoms? What is the purpose of the periodic table of elements? How are solutions and suspensions different? How do insulators protect you in your life? How is energy used to cook food? What happens when matter is heated and cooled? How does energy change forms? How is electric energy formed? What is force? How is force measured? How do machines make our lives easier? What would your life be like without plants? How do you compare differences in plants? How do plants eat? What determines if something is alive or not? How are plant cells different from animal cells? How do plants and animals interact with nonliving things to form an ecosystem? How do changes in the environment affect all organisms?
