PS Physical Science

PS.1 Plan and conduct an investigation to compare the effects of different strengths or different directions of pushes and pulls on the motion of an object.
- Push and pull (K-F.1)
- Investigate pushes and pulls (K-F.2)
PS.2 Analyze data to determine whether a design solution works as intended to change the speed or direction of an object with a push or a pull.
- Design a race car track (K-O.1)
PS.3 Construct an explanation based on observations of the effect of sunlight on earth's surface.
- Investigate sunlight and shade (K-M.2)
PS.4 Use tools and materials to design and build a structure to reduce the warming effect of sunlight on an area.
- Design a sunshade (K-O.2)

LS Life Science

LS.1 Use observations to describe patterns of what plants and animals, including humans, need to survive.
- What do animals need to survive? (K-G.1)
- What do plants need to survive? (K-H.1)

ESS Earth and Space Science

ESS.1 Construct an argument supported by evidence for how plants and animals, including humans, can change the environment to meet their needs.
- How do living things change their environments to meet their needs? (K-J.1)
- How do gray squirrels change the forest to meet their needs? (K-J.2)
ESS.2 Use a model to represent the relationship between the needs of different plants or animals, including humans, and the places they live.
ESS.3 Communicate ideas about the impact of humans on the land, water, air, or other living things in the local environment.
- Reduce, reuse, recycle (K-L.1)
ESS.4 Use and share observations of local weather conditions to describe patterns over time.
- Describe the weather (K-M.1)
- Weather patterns (K-M.4)
ESS.5 Ask questions to obtain information about the purpose of weather forecasting to predict, prepare for, and respond to weather.
