Grade 10 Science, Applied (SNC2P)

The Ontario Grade 10 applied Science course SNC2P has five strands: investigation skills and careers, Biology, Chemistry, Earth and Space Science, and Physics. The museum maps four of them with seven lessons; Earth and Space Science, on climate change, has no honest link.

Draft: these lessons were written with AI help and have not yet been read by a human editor.

Strand A: Scientific Investigation Skills and Career Exploration

Investigation skills and careers in the sciences of the Grade 10 applied course (expectations A1, A2).

  1. Careers and scientists: a physician and an optics scholar Careers connected to the sciences under study, the training they need, and scientists who contributed to those fields (A2.1, A2.2). CareersScholar

Strand B: Biology: Tissues, Organs, and Systems

Cells, tissues, organs and the systems of the human body (expectations B1, B2, B3).

  1. Blood, heart and lungs How two systems of the body, the circulation of the blood and the lungs, work together (B3.5). Invention
  2. What each part of the body is for The structure and function of the body's specialised parts, as an older scheme describes them (B3.2). Scholar

Strand C: Chemistry: Chemical Reactions and their Practical Applications

Chemical reactions in products and professions, and the language that describes them (expectations C1, C2, C3).

  1. Chemistry in a potter's kiln How chemical reactions are used in making a product, and in a particular profession (C1.1, C1.2). Object

Strand E: Physics: Light and Applications of Optics

Light, its reflection and refraction, and the devices built on them (expectations E1, E2, E3).

  1. Where does the mirror send the light? The laws of reflection and how light reflects from mirrors (E2.2, E3.3). Invention
  2. A dark room and a small hole How a property of light is used in the working of an optical device (E3.8). Invention
  3. Where light bends: a water sphere and the rainbow How light bends when it passes from one medium to another (E2.3, E3.4). Invention
