PS Physical Sciences

• PS4 Waves and Their Applications in Technologies for Information Transfer

  • 1.PS4.1 Plan and conduct investigations to provide evidence that vibrating materials can make sound and that sound can make materials vibrate.

  • 1.PS4.2 Make observations to construct an evidence-based account that objects can be seen only when illuminated.

    • More light or less light (1-F.1)

  • 1.PS4.3 Plan and conduct an investigation to determine the effect of placing objects made with different materials in the path of a beam of light.

    • Investigate shadows (1-F.2)
    • Which lets light go through? (1-F.3)

  • 1.PS4.4 Use tools and materials to design and build a device that uses light or sound to solve the problem of communicating over a distance.

    • How do we use light and sound to communicate? (1-F.4)

LS Life Sciences

• LS1 From Molecules to Organisms: Structure and Function

  • 1.LS1.1 Use materials to design a solution to a human problem by mimicking how plants and/or animals use their external parts to help them survive, grow, and meet their needs.

    • How do animals use their body parts? (1-H.2)
    • Identify plant parts (1-I.2)
    • Identify what plant parts do (1-I.3)

  • 1.LS1.2 Obtain information from media and/or text to determine patterns in the behavior of parents and offspring that help offspring survive.

• LS3 Heredity: Inheritance and Variation of Traits

  • 1.LS3.1 Make observations to construct an evidence-based account that young plants and animals are like, but not exactly like, their parents.

    • Match animals to their parents (1-H.3)
    • Match plants to their parents (1-I.4)
    • Compare young living things to their parents (1-J.4)

ESS Earth and Space Sciences

• ESS1 Earth's Place in the Universe

  • 1.ESS1.1 Use observations of the sun, moon, and stars to describe patterns that can be predicted.

    • The daytime sky (1-O.1)
    • The night sky (1-O.2)

  • 1.ESS1.2 Make observations at different times of year to relate the amount of daylight and relative temperature to the time of year.

• ESS3 Earth and Human Activity

  • 1.ESS3.1 Communicate solutions that will reduce the impact of humans on the land, water, air, and/or other living things in the local environment.

    • Reduce, reuse, recycle (1-M.1)
