student information
What will I learn in Science?
The Science course covers the three sciences:Biology,Chemistry and Physics.
Biology is the science of living things.
You will learn about:
• Plants and animals including humans
• The environment and how to care for it.
Chemistry deals with the composition of substances and their properties. You will learn about:
• The materials that make up the world around us
• How materials can change and be changed.
Physics is the science of matter and energy and how they interact.
You will learn about:
• Forces and energy
• How things work.
Is learning Science anything like what I did in primary school?
In primary school you learned about living things, energy and forces, materials, and about care for the environment.You also explored the world around you and learned to work like a scientist. In Junior Certificate Science you will use and develop these science skills.
