The document provides an overview of the science curriculum maps and course sequences at SNA school. It discusses how the maps are organized for chemistry, biology, and physics and lists the AP course options. The maps include modules, essential questions, standards, learning objectives, resources and sample assessments. Recommended course sequences for grades 10-12 are provided. The document also discusses how the maps inform instruction, support vertical alignment across grades and subjects, horizontal alignment within departments, and interdisciplinary connections. Finally, it introduces several digital resources to support science instruction.

- 13. Vertical Coherence In Curriculum Maps Chemistry Curriculum Map Module A: Energy as a Driving Force Module G: Chemical Reactions and Stoichiometry North Carolina Essential Standards Chemistry Chm.2.1 Understand the relationship among pressure, temperature, volume, and phase. Chm.2.2 Analyze chemical reactions in terms of quantities, product formation, and energy. Essential Questions: How do changes in the kinetic energy of a system affect the system? How can you calculate the amount of energy needed to change phase given set parameters? How can I tell that a chemical reaction has taken place? Biology Curriculum Map Module D: Matter and Energy in Organisms (Cellular Energy) Module E: Matter and Energy in Ecosystems North Carolina Essential Standards Biology Bio.4.2 Analyze the relationships between biochemical processes and energy use in the cell. Essential Questions: How can an organism maintain homeostasis? What is diffusion and how does it enable the cell to move materials into and out of the cell? How does an organism maintain homeostasis? How does a plant produce energy? How do plants turn sunlight into sugar?
