Science- Second 9 weeks 

Students will be doing the following 8 things while studying Physical Science and Engineering Design:

1. Asking questions (for science) and defining problems (for engineering); 

2. Developing and using models; 

3. Planning and carrying out investigations; 

4. Analyzing and interpreting data;

 5. Using mathematics and computational thinking; 

6. Constructing explanations for science and designing solutions for engineering;

 7. Engaging in argument from evidence; and

8. Obtaining, evaluating, and communicating information. view

Physical Science:

5.PS.1 Describe and measure the volume and mass of a sample of a given material. 

5.PS.2 Demonstrate that regardless of how parts of an object are assembled the mass of the whole object is identical to the sum of the mass of the parts; however, the volume can differ from the sum of the volumes. (Law of Conservation of Mass) 

5.PS.3 Determine if matter has been added or lost by comparing mass when melting, freezing, or dissolving a sample of a substance. (Law of Conservation of Mass)

5.PS.4 Describe the difference between weight being dependent on gravity and mass comprised of the amount of matter in a given substance or material. 

Engineering Design:

3-5.E.1 Identify a simple problem with the design of an object that reflects a need or a want. Include criteria for success and constraints on materials, time, or cost. 

3-5.E.2 Construct and compare multiple plausible solutions to a problem based on how well each is likely to meet the criteria and constraints of the problem. 

3-5.E.3 Construct and perform fair investigations in which variables are controlled and failure points are considered to identify aspects of a model or prototype that can be improved. 

Physical Science:

1. I can describe and measure the volume and mass of a sample of a given material.

2. I can demonstrate that regardless of how parts of an object are assembled the mass of the whole object is identical to the sum of the mass of the parts; however, the volume can

differ from the sum of the volumes. (Law of Conservation of Mass)

3. I can determine if matter has been added or lost by comparing mass when melting, freezing, or dissolving a sample of a substance. (Law of Conservation of Mass)

4. I can determine if matter has been added or lost by comparing mass when melting, freezing, or dissolving a sample of a substance. (Law of Conservation of Mass)

Engineering Design:

1. I can identify a simple problem with the design of an object that reflects a need or a want. I can include criteria

for success and constraints on materials, time, or cost.

2. I can construct and compare multiple plausible solutions to a problem based on how well each is likely to meet the criteria and constraints of the problem.

3. I can construct and perform fair investigations in which variables are controlled and failure points are considered to identify aspects of a model or prototype that can be improved.
