Course Description:
Students will develop understanding of environmental concepts as outlined in the Kentucky Academic Standards for Science, such as cycling of matter, biodiversity, earth systems, energy flow and climate, and human impact. Students will learn these core ideas through the use of the science and engineering practices and crosscutting concepts. The science and engineering practices are the skills students will use as they investigate the natural world and develop solutions to problems. The crosscutting concepts are conceptual ways of thinking that cross the domains of science.
