SCIENCE Breck’s Science Department gives all of its students a firm grounding in the subjects that they will study later in college. Students in the seventh through ninth grades receive instruction in the basics of experimentation and data correlation. Starting in the seventh grade, students take a course in Earth Science followed by a course in the eighth grade in general science. In the ninth grade the teaching stafT combines to instruct them in the rudiments of experimentation in their Time, Space and Matter course. In the tenth grade, Mr. Nielsen teaches Biology. In the eleventh grade, students take Chemistry from Mr Marr. The twelfth grade studies Physics with Mr. Jacobson. Each of the science courses contain extensive laboratory work. Each student works on his own, or in small groups. They write up the data and attempt to correlate them and interpret the phenomena. Next year, new labs in the proposed Math-Science wing will improve the conditions and the courses. In the Science Department, a student is offered a variety of courses, and may find his interest taken by one or more of them. Thus, the student learns how to experiment, and finds out if one of science's multitudinous aspects interests him. 22
