What You’ll Do At Avenues, science teachers ensure that students act and think like scientists every day: asking questions, conducting experiments, and trying to make sense of phenomena. In grades 9-12, students develop an understanding of the complexity and ambiguity of empirical scientific work and the dynamics of science, technology and society. As students progress through the sciences they are encouraged to extend reasoning and sense making habits, develop effective problem-solving strategies, and rely on evidence to support a claim.
