Accelerate Online Academy’s Second Grade Science online course introduces students to the process of observation and how important it is to the study of science. This course provides students with the opportunity to expand their minds and see for themselves the way that animals and nature are a part of their everyday lives.
Science 2 introduces students to the process of observation and how important it is to the study of science. Learners will identify their five senses and why they are critical to observation. Students will use these observation skills throughout the course as they examine many different types of animals and their environments. Students will begin by exploring the needs and behaviors of animals and continue into learning how scientists solve problems through engineering.
As the course continues, exploration continues to topics of matter, energy, habitats, weather, and animal characteristics. Students will learn through video, hands-on participation, and observation with nature. The teachers will conduct live assessments for the topics that have been covered throughout the week’s lessons. Grade 2 Science provides students with the opportunity to expand their minds and see for themselves how the world works and the way animals and nature are a part of their everyday lives.
Semester B of Science 2 begins with how the earth changes and how things move. Learners will be asked to recall the characteristics of different animal groups and explore how they are interconnected through food chains and cooperation. The course ends with the students taking a closer look at how plants fit into the workings of the world and the different types of resources on Earth. At the close of the course, students will have a deeper understanding and appreciation of Earth’s systems and interdependence.
