PROPERTIES OF MATTER:
- I can plan and conduct an investigation to classify different kinds of materials by their observable properties.
- I can analyze data obtained from testing materials to determine which have the properties best suited for a specific purpose.
- I can make observations to construct an evidence-based account of how objects made of small sets of pieces can be taken apart and made into a new object.
- I can construct an argument that some changes caused by heating or cooling can be reversed and some cannot.
RELATIONSHIPS IN ECOSYSTEMS:
- I can plan and conduct an investigation to determine if plants need sunlight and water to grow.
- I can develop a model that mimics the function of an animal in dispersing seeds or pollinating plants.
PROCESSES THAT SHAPE THE EARTH:
- I can use information from several sources to provide evidence that Earth events can occur quickly or slowly.
- I can compare multiple solutions designed to slow wind or water from changing the shape of the land.
- I can develop a model to represent the shapes of land and bodies of water in an area.
- I can obtain information to identify where water is found on Earth and if it is solid or liquid.
ENGINEERING DESIGN:
- I can compare two objects.
- I can find a solution to a problem.
- I can give reasons for my ideas.
- I can talk about my observations.
