Physical Science: Forces and Motion |
5.P.1.1 |
Understand force, motion and the relationship between them
|
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. |
|

Physical Science: Matter: Properties and Change
|
5.P.2.1 |
Understand the interactions of matter and energy and the changes that occur |
Explain how the sun’s energy impacts the processes of the water cycle (including, evaporation, transpiration, condensation, precipitation and runoff). |
|
|
5.P.2.2 |
Compare the weight of an object to the sum of the weight of its parts before and after an interaction. |
|
|
||
5.P.2.3 |
Summarize properties of original materials, and the new material(s) formed, to demonstrate that a change has occurred. |
|
|
||
Physical Science: Energy Conservation and Transfer |
5.P.3.1 |
Explain how the properties of some materials change as a result of heating and cooling |
Explain the effects of the transfer of heat (either by direct contact or at a distance) that occurs between objects at different temperatures. (conduction, convection or radiation) |
|
|
5.P.3.2 |
Explain how heating and cooling affect some materials and how this relates to their purpose and practical applications. |
|
|
||
Earth Science: Earth Systems, Structures and Processes |
5.E.11 |
Understand weather patterns and phenomena, making connections to the weather in a particular place and time |
Compare daily and seasonal changes in weather conditions (including wind speed and direction, precipitation, and temperature) and patterns. |
|
|
5.E.1.2 |
Predict upcoming weather events from weather data collected through observation and measurements. |
|
|
||
5.E.1.3 |
Explain how global patterns such as the jet stream and water currents influence local weather in measurable terms such as temperature, wind direction and speed, and precipitation. |
|
|
||
Life Science: Structures and Functions of Living |
5.L.1.1 |
Understand how structures and systems of organisms (to include the human body) perform functions necessary for life. |
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, cardiovascular) as it relates to their functions necessary for life. |
|
|
||
Life Science: Ecosystems |
5.L.2.1 |
Understand the interdependence of plants and animals with their ecosystem |
Compare the characteristics of several common ecosystems, including estuaries and salt marshes, oceans, lakes and ponds, forests, and grasslands). |
|
|
5.L.2.1 |
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. |
|
|
||
Life Science: Evolution and Genetics |
5.L.3.1 |
Understand why organisms differ from or are similar to their parents based on the characteristics of the organism |
Explain why organisms differ from or are similar to their parents based on the characteristics of the organism. |
|
|
5.L.3.2 |
Give examples of likenesses that are inherited and some that are not |
