This Science unit focuses on the form and function of structures in our built and natural environment. Your learner will engage in tactile and concrete learning activities, including hands-on demonstrations, experiments, and a building project. The curriculum helps students develop investigation and experimentation skills by testing structures and reflecting upon why they fail.
