Mr. Mead's Courses
8th, 9th, and 10th Grade Science
Overview
The Enlightium Academy Science Department has recently revised how projects work within our courses. Our main focus was to improve the way students interacted with our curriculum. We have reduced the amount of busywork by trimming the number of projects. At the same time, we have improved the quality of the remaining projects by making them more in-depth, more clearly explained, and more integrated with the lessons and purpose of the course. We have also introduced a few open-ended projects that will allow students to present their understanding in new and creative ways.
Another huge benefit to Enlightium families is that the materials lists for our courses have been revised. Most projects can be completed using materials commonly found in the home, borrowed from neighbors or friends, or purchased for cheap from local sources. Please review each course's supply list for the complete list, advice, and alternatives.
