This course provides an exploration of biology, chemistry, physics, and earth science topics. We will take a microscopic look at the universe, exploring cells, the tiny building blocks of life, and atoms, the smallest indivisable particles of matter, before investigating two types of waves: electromagnetic and seismic. The course is designed to respond to students’ individual learning needs and is made up of a wide variety of learning experiences, assignments, and projects which allow students to glean information from both text and audio-visual materials and to express their learning through a spectrum of project types. Students are expected to participate in a monthly virtual class. Students should expect to spend approximately 3.5 hours on the course each week. Parents will need to be actively involved in keeping students on track at home and supervising infrequent tests.

STEM 7 integrates the learning requirements for Science, Technology and Math into one course. The activities encompass a variety of online and hands-on tasks that are broken down into a weekly schedule within the course so students can easily follow along and ensure they are on track to finish by the end of the year.

This course uses a variety of Gizmos, worksheets, online resources, videos, and hands-on activities. There are two textbooks for the course that supplement learning for both math and science. A student should plan to spend at least three hours each week to gain the most learning from the activities in the course and remain on track to finish in June. Parents should plan to help their child manage their time, check that all tasks from each week have been completed and provide assistance for a concept that is proving harder to learn. The teacher will generally include parents in responses to student questions however students are expected to contact the course teacher independently as needed.

STEM is a multi-discipline course where students receive individual credit for Math 7, Science 7 and ADST 7.  Each course is broken down into two basic areas.  The mark for each course is calculated based on the total mark received for each category when added together.
