Students in Environmental Science will investigate key concepts for the life sciences and the earth and space sciences. The disciplinary core ideas that are investigated during this course include:
- Ecosystems: Interactions, Energy, and Dynamics
- Earth's Systems
- Earth and Human Activity
The performance expectations for high school Environmental Science blend core ideas with scientific and engineering practices and crosscutting concepts to support students in developing usable knowledge that can be applied across the science disciplines. The order of the standards at any grade level is not meant to imply a sequence of topics and should be considered flexible for the organization of any course.
