Grade 08

Subject: Grade 8 Integrated Science (SCIE80)


Description

Learning Higher Integrated Sciences.


COURSE DESCRIPTION/CORE - LEARNING AREA STANDARD


The learners demonstrate an understanding of basic science concepts and the application of science-inquiry skills. They exhibit scientific attitudes and values to solve problems critically, innovative beneficial products, protect the environment and conserve resources, enhance the integrity and wellness of people, make informed decisions and engage in discussions of relevant issues that involve science, technology and environment.


COURSE MAP:


MONDAY TO FRIDAY Online Class in a Week.


MODE OF INSTRUCTION:


Asynchronous learning is a general term used to describe forms of education, instruction, and learning that do not occur in the same place or at the same time.


Examples of asynchronous learning:


Watching pre-recorded lecture videos or lessons. Viewing video demonstrations. Reading and writing assignments. Research projects.


Asynchronous communication happens when information can be exchanged independently of time. It doesn't require the recipient's immediate attention, allowing them to respond to the message at their convenience. Examples of asynchronous communication are emails, online forums, and collaborative documents.


COURSE OBJECTIVE/KEY STANDARD:


Learners will have investigated the effects of some factors on the motion of an object based on the Laws of Motion. They can differentiate the concept of work as used in science and in Layman's language. They know the factors that affect the transfer of energy, such as temperature difference and the type (solid, liquid, gas) of the medium.


Learners can explain how active faults generate earthquakes and how tropical cyclones originate from warm ocean water. They recognize other members of the solar system.


Learners explain the behavior of matter in terms of particles it is made of. They recognize that ingredients in food and medical products are made up of these particles and are absorbed by the body in the form of ions.


Learners recognize reproduction as a process of cell division resulting in the growth of organisms. They have developed deeper into the process of digestion as studied in the lower grades, giving emphasis on proper nutrition for overall wellness. They can participate in activities that protect and conserve economically important species used for food.
