Middle School Science
Students at Seaford Middle School engage in scientific activities to gain a deeper understanding of the natural world. Units of study incorporate the New York State Science Learning Standards (NYSSLS), and cover various topics in physical science, life science, and earth and space science. Students will learn to generate explanations for phenomena that are testable and supported by claims and evidence. All students in grade 8 take Living Environment/Biology. Living Environment acquaints students with the diversity of life in the world around them and provides a basic understanding of the fundamental principles of Biology. Areas of study include Unity and Diversity Among Living Things, Maintenance in Living Things, Human Physiology, Reproduction and Development, Transmission of Traits from Generation to Generation, Evolution, and Ecology. Laboratory work is a major part of the course and students are required to successfully complete 1200 minutes of laboratory time to sit for the Regents examination in June. Classes meet on double and single periods on alternate days.
