Pukekohe High School
Year 10 Science
Course Description
Head of Faculty - Kaihautuu: Miss M. Ashford.
In the Year 10 science course we develop the skills needed to carry out scientific investigations using all four strands of science: chemistry, physics, biology, and Earth and space. These strands will be integrated into topics that have localised, contextual and relevant contexts. These contexts include the biological and chemical analysis of local waterways, plant structures and functions and how this is linked to food production, materials and house design, and the practical application of all the strands of science to provide scientific evidence in forensic science to solve crime. These topics will help students develop their skills in using the scientific method to carry out practical investigations, literacy and numeracy, working together, overcoming challenges and developing resilience.
The topics will be assessed in both knowledge and skill development, and will include individual and group assignments.
