1 Spiral Notebook (1-3 Subjects)-Students will take notes in this notebook. I have a model in the classroom. This will be the best resource for studying for quizzes, unit tests, quarterly assessments and the EOG. It should go home the night before a quiz or test. Slides will also be posted in Google Classroom.





Quarter 1

5.L.1 Understand how structures and systems of organisms (to include the human body) perform functions necessary for life.

5.L.1.1 Explain why some organisms are capable of surviving as a single cell while others require many cells that are specialized to survive.

5.L.1.2 Compare the major systems of the human body (digestive, respiratory, circulatory, muscular, skeletal, and cardiovascular) in terms of their functions necessary for life.


Quiz 1 is on Key Concept 1 and 2

Key Concept 1: Organisms have structures and functions. (5.L.1)

Sub Concept: An organism is a living thing (Ex. humans, dogs, plants, bacteria).

Sub Concept: All organisms have structures (the way something is organized).

Sub Concept: Some organisms have systems (a set of connected parts forming a whole).

Sub Concept: Structures and systems of organisms perform functions (special activity or purpose for which it is used) necessary for life. (5.L.1)


Key Concept 2: Organisms are made of one or more cells. (5.L.1.1)

Sub Concept: A cell is the basic structure and function of life. (5.L.1.1)

Sub Concept: Some organisms are capable of living as a single cell. (5.L.1.1)

Sub Concept: Single cell (unicellular) organisms consist of one cell and perform all functions necessary for life within that one cell. (ex. Bacteria). (5.L.1.1)

Sub Concept: Some organisms require many cells (multicellular) in order to live. (ex. humans, dogs, plants) (5L.1.1)

Sub Concept: Multicellular organisms have differentiated cells that perform specialized functions necessary for life. (5.L.1.1)

Sub Concept: In multicellular organisms, only the surface cells (those in contact with the external environment) are able to exchange substances (material of a particular kind). For example, food intake and respiration. (5.L.1.1)

Sub Concept: Multicellular organisms have developed transport systems because cells within an organism are too far away from the environment for a direct exchange of substances (material of a particular kind). (5.L.1.1)





Quarter 2


5.L.2

Understand the interdependence of plants and animals with their ecosystems.

5.L.2.1

Compare characteristics of several common ecosystems, including estuaries and salt marshes, oceans, lakes and ponds, forests, and grasslands.

5.L.2.2

Classify the organisms within an ecosystem according to the function they serve: producers, consumers, or decomposers (biotic factors).

5.L.2.3

Infer the effects that may result from the interconnected relationship of plants and animals to their ecosystem.




Quarter 3

Force and Motion

5.P.1

Understand force, motion and the relationship between them.

5.P.1.1

Explain how factors such as gravity, friction, and change in mass affect the motion of objects.

5.P.1.2

Infer the motion of objects in terms of how far they travel in a certain amount of time and the direction in which they travel.

5.P.1.3

Illustrate the motion of an object using a graph to show a change in position over a period of time.

5.P.1.4

Predict the effect of a given force or a change in mass on the motion of an object.

Vocabulary: force, motion, rate or speed, distance, technical drawing, acceleration, mass, position
