6th Grade Science

6th Grade Science is a general science class with lots of different topics including micro-organisms, forces and motion, and oceanography.  We will start the year out by learning about lab safety, the scientific method, and measurements and the metric system.  This is a science fair year, so students should start thinking about a project that interests them.

HOMEWORK:
Chapter F1 Test Review answers:
1. liter
2.  astronomical unit (a.u.)
3.  speed
4.  velocity
5.  acceleration
6.  metric system (or S.I.)
7.  gravity
8.  deceleration
9. cyclometer
10. speed
11. distance/time/time for example:  km/hr/sec
12.  total distance / total time
13.  length
14.  foot (yard, mile....)
15.  gallon
16.  gram
17. discs cause friction on wheels which slows them down
18. longer
19.  dist/time  ex:  meters/second
20.  dist/time/time ex:  meters/second/second
21.  no - it is the same everywhere
22.  direction
23.  yes
24.  acceleration
25.  length of body parts
26.  5 km/hr/sec
27.  a.  deceleration
b.  velocity
c. speed
d. acceleration
28.  flat - so change in slope doesn't affect performance
29.  speed
30.  acceleration
