Standard: 3.2.5.A, 3.2.5.B, 3.2.5.C Develop a model to describe that matter is made of particles too small to be seen. Make and communicate observations and measurements to identify materials based on their properties. Interpret and analyze data to make decisions about how to utilize materials based on their properties.
Big Idea:
All forms of matter exist as a result of the combination or rearrangement of atoms.
LEARNING SCALE
With help, the student demonstrates partial success at 2.0 and 3.0.
I can:
Describe how matter is constructed of many parts.
Describe the properties scientists use to identify materials.
Observe and describe the properties of different materials (for example: color, hardness, reflectivity, electrical conductivity, thermal conductivity, response to magnetic forces, and solubility).
Describe the properties of various materials (for example: strong, flexible, hard, soft, rough, scratchy, smooth, and porous).
