6th Grade Integrated Science

Syllabus

Integrated science is a course where students experience the engineering design cycle in a digital fab lab!


Topics of study include:

Integrated Science is a self-paced course
  • Students update a progress tracker daily where they can see their progress compared to the recommended pace.
  • All instruction is done using short tutorial videos created by Mr. Weiger
    • This allows students to work at the right pace for them.  
    • If a student needs to re-watch a tutorial video they have time to do so.  
    • On the other hand, if a student can move at a rapid pace through the material, that's okay too!
  • This structure allows me to work one-on-one with students every day for the entire class period.


Grades will based on:
  • Performance:
    • Reflection assignment every three weeks
    • Student projects which meet criteria and constraints
  • Practice
    • Short quizzes on course material as students move through the curriculum
