K12-SCIENCE-CLASS-2

This class is aligned to Next Generation

State Standards for 2nd grade science. While it

covers many of the same topics covered in the previous

science classes, it expands on these ideas, adding a

greater depth of knowledge. Students will learn the

basics of force, will explore gravity, and will learn about

magnets. They will review the states of matter, while

adding an explanation of how a substance changes from

one state to another. The students will learn new things

about plant an animals, including how they move, how

they get food, and what keeps them safe from harm.

Students will review the function of key organs in the

human body, such as the brain, heart, muscles, and

digestive system. In addition, students will learn about

how to keep their body healthy through proper food,

exercise, and avoiding germs when possible. Students

will review the function and motion of the Earth, Moon,

and stars. They will also learn about slow and fast land

changes and fossils. Finally, the students will learn about

weather, including the water cycle, the four seasons, and

the types of severe weather they may experience.
