Science Instruction at Tuskegee Airmen Global Academy
🔬 Exploring Curiosity, Building Knowledge, and Inspiring Discovery
At Tuskegee Airmen Global Academy, science is more than just a subject — it’s a journey into understanding the world around us. Our science instruction follows the Georgia Standards of Excellence (GSE) and is designed to spark curiosity, deepen thinking, and help students make real-world connections.
🌍 What Will Students Learn in Science?
Our curriculum includes engaging lessons across:
-
Earth Science (weather, planets, resources)
-
Life Science (plants, animals, ecosystems)
-
Physical Science (matter, energy, forces)
These topics are taught through hands-on investigations, real-world problems, and meaningful discussions that bring science to life.
🔁 How Is Science Taught at TAG?
We follow a 5E learning model:
Engage, Explore, Explain, Elaborate, and Evaluate
This approach helps students:-
Ask questions and investigate real-world phenomena
-
Collaborate with classmates to explore scientific ideas
-
Apply what they learn to solve problems and build understanding
All lessons are phenomenon-based, which means students begin by observing something puzzling or interesting, then work like real scientists to figure it out.
🎯 What Are Our Goals for Science Education?
Aligned with Atlanta Public Schools' vision, our goal is to help students:
-
Feel the excitement and wonder of learning about the natural world
-
Use scientific thinking to make smart, informed decisions in life
-
Participate thoughtfully in conversations about science and technology
-
Prepare for future careers with confidence in STEM fields
🧠 How Can Families Support at Home?
-
Encourage your child to ask “why” and “how” questions
-
Watch science shows or explore nature together
-
Visit science museums or explore online simulations
-
Talk about how science connects to everyday life
At TAG Academy, we believe every student is a scientist in the making. Our job is to nurture that potential and provide learning experiences that empower students to question, discover, and lead with knowledge.
