EnergyPS3

  • D.

    Energy in Chemical Process and EverydayPS3.D

    1. D.

  • C.

    Organization for Matter and Energy Flow in OrganismsLS1.C

Ecosystems: Interactions, Energy, and DynamicsLS2

  • B.

    Cycles of matter and Energy Transfer in EcosystemsLS2.B

    1. B.

      Develop a model to describe the movement of matter among plants, animals, decomposers, and the environment.5.LS2.B

Earth's Place in the UniverseESS1

  • A.

    The Universe and its StarsESS1.A

    1. A.

  • B.

    Earth and the Solar SystemESS1.B

    1. a.

      Make observations during different seasons to relate the amount of daylight to the time of year.5.ESS1.B.a

    2. b.

      Represent data in graphical displays to reveal patterns of daily changes in length and direction of shadows, day and night, and the seasonal appearance of some stars in the night sky.5.ESS1.B.b

Earth's SystemsESS2

  • A.

    Earth Materials and SystemsESS2.A

Engineering DesignETS1

  • A.

    Defining and Delimiting Engineering ProblemsETS1.A

    1. A.

      Define a simple design problem reflecting a need or a want that includes specified criteria for success and constraints on materials, time, or cost.5.ETS1.A

  • B.

    Developing Possible SolutionsETS1.B

    1. B.
