ISU Mongolia MYP Subject: Science Grade: 8 Unit title Unit 1 Chemical and Physical Reactions Unit 2 Waves Unit 3 Magnetism and Electricity Unit 4 Forces and Motion, Unit 5 Photosynthesis and Respiration AOI focus Environments Human Ingenuity Human Ingenuity Human Ingenuity Environments Significant concept The Earth’s surface is constantly changing as a result of chemical and physical reactions in the environment. What processes cause the Earth’s surface to change? Energy can be transferred by waves. The energy of moving electrons can be harnessed by humans for practical purposes. There are laws governing the motion of objects. How does energy get to us from other places? How is magnetism related to electricity and how do we use electricity in our everyday lives? End of topic test Build Simple to complex circuits Investigation relating to life without Electricity How do motion, force, and energy relate to each other and impact our daily lives? Organisms can store chemical energy through photosynthesis and release it during respiration. How are complex chemicals built, and how can they be broken down to release energy?
