Science & STEM
McCall Middle School Science & STEM
The MA Department of Elementary and Secondary Education Science, Technology and Engineering (STE) Frameworks are thematically organized and draw from the core disciplines of physical, Earth & space, and life sciences. This integrated approach, with each grade engaging in all three disciplines, mirrors how scientists and engineers carry out their work. At the end of grade 8, students will take the STE MCAS which draws from the 6-8 curriculum.
Through the science and engineering practices, McCall science students observe and come to understand the natural phenomena around them. Per the expectations laid out in the STE Frameworks, students engage daily in one of the eight science practices paired with at least one grade level content standard.
Winchester High School Science & STEM Department
