PS2: Motion and Stability: Forces and Interactions

K-PS2-1

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.

K-PS2-2

Analyze data to determine if a design solution works as intended to change the speed or direction of an object with a push or a pull.

PS3: Energy

K-PS3-1

Make observations to determine the effect of sunlight on Earth’s surface.

K-PS3-2

Use tools and materials provided to design and build a structure that will reduce the warming effect of sunlight on an area.

LS1: From Molecules to Organisms: Structures and Processes

K-LS1-1

Use observations to describe patterns of what plants and animals (including humans) need to survive.

ESS2: Earth’s Systems

K-ESS2-1

Use and share observations of local weather conditions to describe patterns over time.

K-ESS2-2

Construct an argument supported by evidence for how plants and animals (including humans) can change the environment to meet their needs.

ESS3: Earth and Human Activity

K-ESS3-1

Use a model to represent the relationship between the needs of different plants or animals (including humans) and the places they live.

K-ESS3-2

Ask questions to obtain information about the purpose of weather forecasting to prepare for, and respond to, severe weather.

K-ESS3-3

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