1 I. GENERAL INFORMATION a. Course Title: Science b. Grade: 6 MUNCY SCHOOL DISTRICT MYERS ELEMENTARY SCHOOL PLANNED COURSE II. III. IV. COURSE DESCRIPTION a. Sixth grade science is a course that addresses processes and concepts such as the mation of landms (earthquakes, volcanoes), the cell as a basic unit of structure and function of all living things, cell processes, genetics through heredity, DNA, and scientific theories. Concepts are developed through the processes of observing, predicting, inferring, and experimenting. CONTENT OUTLINE a. Interactive Science: Earth Science Book (~9 weeks) i.
