OTHS Science Learning GoalThe 2011-2012 OTHS Science Department Learning Goal is to develop science literacy skills in students to serve as the foundation for improving scientific reasoning, problem solving, and analytical research skills - including but not limited to the construction and analysis of graphs and data tables. OTHS Science Curriculum OverviewThe O’Fallon Township High School science curriculum offers a variety of courses designed to meet the needs of all students. Students are required to complete two years of science by the end of their junior year. The two required years of science must include one life science course and one physical science course. After meeting this requirement, students are encouraged to take additional science courses. Because of the large number of science course offerings and options, there is no particular course “sequence” for taking science courses. Students should consult their science teachers and guidance counselors to determine best program for them.Many OTHS science courses have prerequisites. These prerequisites are included in the course curriculum guides in this document, as well as in the OTHS course catalog available through the guidance department.OTHS Science CoursesFirst Year Science CoursesLife Science Courses:Biology 1, Honors Biology 1Physical Science Courses: Physical/Earth ScienceSecond Year Science CoursesLife Science Courses: Biology 1, Honors Biology 1, Integrated Life Science, Environmental SciencePhysical Science Courses: Physical/Earth Science, Geology 1, Chemistry 1, Honors Chemistry 1, Physics 1, Honors Physics 1Additional Science CoursesThese courses may be taken after meeting the two-year science requirement, assuming other prerequisites are met.Life Science Courses: Biology 1, Integrated Life Science, Environmental Science, Human Anatomy & Physiology, Honors Biology 2Physical Science Courses: Physical/Earth Science, Geology 1, Chemistry 1, Honors Chemistry 1, Chemistry 2, Honors Chemistry 2, Physics 1, Physics 2, Honors Physics 1, Honors Physics 2OTHS Physical Science Courses – Curriculum GuidesPhysical/Earth Science7Geology 112Chemistry 118Honors Chemistry 125Chemistry 233Honors Chemistry 238Physics 142Physics 247Honors Physics 149Honors Physics 254Course:Physical/Earth ScienceCourse Description: Physical/Earth Science is a course designed to give introductory students an understanding of basic Physical Science concepts. The topics of motion, energy and matter will be taught and reinforced by analyzing the interaction of these concepts with Earth Science. The Earth Science concepts of planetary systems, weather and physical processes will be related to current events and information along with the relationship humans have with the environment. Lab work will be inquiry based and used to reinforce the concepts presented in class. This framework will create a comprehensive understanding of and appreciation for the physical workings of the Earth.Prerequisites: NoneTextbook:Physical Science with Earth Science; Feather, McLaughlin, Thompson and Zike; Glencoe, 2006Grading Scale: 97 & above A+, 96-93 A, 92-90 A-, 89-87 B+, 86-83 B, 82-80 B-, 79-77 C+, 76-73 C, 72-70 C-, 69-67 D+, 66-63 D, 62-60 D-, 59-0 FCourse Outline:Unit 1 – The Nature of Science (Chapters 1 – 2) – 10 daysILS:11.A.4a, 4b, 4c, 4d, 4e, 4f13.A.4a, 4b, 4cThe Methods of Science (1.1, pp. 6 – 13)Standards of Measurement (1.2, pp. 14 – 21)Communicating with Graphs (1.3, pp. 22 – 26)Labs/Activities:Graphing Activity, 3-Hole Bottle, Lipid Lab, Measurement labUnit 2 – Motion (Chapter 3 and 4) - 20 DaysILS:11.A.4a, 4b, 4c, 4d, 4e, 4f12.D.4a13.A.4aDescribing Motion (3.1, pp. 70 – 75)Acceleration (3.2, pp. 76 – 80)Motion and Forces (3.3, pp. 81 – 86)The First Two Laws of Motion (4.1, pp. 98 – 103)Gravity (4.2, pp. 104 – 111)The Third Law of Motion (4.3, pp. 113 – 117)Labs/Activities:Tennis Ball Motion Lab, Design a Parachute Lab, Virtual Projectile Lab, Friction Predictions Lab, Collision Lab, Water Rocket Lab Zoom-Zoom Capstone LabUnit 3 – The Solar System (Chapter 7 and 8) – 20 DaysILS:11.A.4a, 4b, 4c, 4d, 4e, 4f12.F.4a13.A.4aEarth in Space (7.1, pp.187 – 189)Time and Seasons (7.2, pp. 190 – 195)Earth’s Moon (7.3, pp. 197 – 207)Planet Motion (8.1, pp. 218 – 222)The Inner Planets (8.2, pp. 223 – 229)The Outer Planets (8.3, pp. 231 – 237)Labs/Activities:Season Cycler Activity, Demonstrating Eclipses Activity, “If We Had No Moon” Video, Apollo 13 Video, Solar System Machine Tape Model Project, Create an Alien ProjectUnit 4 – Energy in Motion (Chapters 9 – 11) – 30 DaysILS: 11.A.4a, 4b, 4c, 4d, 4e, 4f12.C.4a13.A.4aTemperature and Thermal Energy (9.1, pp. 254 – 259)States of Matter (9.2, pp. 260 – 265)Transferring Thermal Energy (9.3, pp. 266 – 270)Using Thermal Energy (9.4, pp. 272 – 277)The Nature of Waves (10.1, pp. 288 - 293)Wave Properties (10.2, pp. 294 – 299)Behavior of Waves (10.3, pp. 301 – 309)Sound (11.1, pp.320 – 326)Reflection and Refraction of Light (11.2, pp. 327 – 330)Mirrors, Lenses and the Eye (11.3, pp. 331 – 337)Labs/Activities: Virtual Insulation Lab, Food Energy Lab, Specific Heat Lab, Ice Cream Lab, Build a Speaker Lab, Light and Color Demos, Spectral Tube Demos, Start ID ActivityUnit 5 – Electromagnetic Radiation (Chapter 15) – 12 DaysILS:11.A.4a, 4b, 4c, 4d, 4e, 4f12.C.4a13.A.4aWhat are Electromagnetic Waves?
