Educating Our Parents: Understanding the Niagara Falls District Curriculum
The Science curriculum has been designed to prepare students for academic and career goals of the 21st century. The 9th and 10th grade expectations involve scientific investigation skills, biology, chemistry, earth and space science, and physics. Students learn about sustainable ecosystems and systems of living things, characteristics of electricity and electrical applications, chemical reactions, climate change, space exploration, light and geometric optics, and the application of optics.
In grades 11 and 12, the Science curriculum introduces students to more advanced concepts in these fields. Students will learn about evolution, cellular biology, biochemistry and microbiology, genetics and molecular genetics. They also study living things including the anatomy of animals and plants in their natural environment, which helps them to develop their observational skills and ability to convey their scientific observations. The Environmental Education program also offers students the chance to study these concepts.

Chalk Talk: High School Literacy Development Ideas
When using digital storytelling with students in middle and high school, it is typically a breeze for many of them to learn the literary concepts that are involved. They can search the web for images and music and may even make their own movies. If a teacher wants to give the students complete freedom over how they find the elements for their stories, they should be sure to talk with them about copyright laws and using only appropriate images and music and ensure that they understand this. If digital cameras and scanners are available, it would be a great idea to allow students to take photographs for their digital storybooks and to scan the photos (or any artwork they may have created) into their stories, making the stories more meaningful for them.
