IN.7.ESS.Earth and Space Science (ESS)
Earth and Space Science (ESS)
7.ESS.1. Identify and investigate the properties of minerals. Identify and classify a variety of rocks based on physical characteristics from their origin, and explain how they are related using the rock cycle. (i.e. Sedimentary, igneous, and metamorphic rocks)Quiz, Flash Cards, Worksheet, Game Minerals Quiz, Flash Cards, Worksheet, Game Rocks
7.ESS.2. Construct a model or scale drawing (digitally or on paper), based on evidence from rock strata and fossil records, for how the geologic time scale is used to organize Earth’s 4.6 billion-year-old history.
7.ESS.3. Using simulations or demonstrations, explain continental drift theory and how lithospheric (tectonic) plates have been and still are in constant motion resulting in the creation of landforms on the Earth's surface over time.
7.ESS.4. Construct an explanation, based on evidence found in and around Indiana, for how large scale physical processes, such as Karst topography and glaciation, have shaped the land.Quiz, Flash Cards, Worksheet, Game Rocks
7.ESS.5. Construct a model, diagram, or scale drawing of the interior layers of the Earth. Identify and compare the compositional (chemical) layers to the mechanical (physical) layers of the Earth’s interior including magnetic properties.
7.ESS.7. Describe the positive and negative environmental impacts of obtaining and utilizing various renewable and nonrenewable energy resources in Indiana. Determine which energy resources are the most beneficial and efficient.
IN.7.LS.Life Science (LS)
7.LS.1. Investigate and observe cells in living organisms and collect evidence showing that living things are made of cells. Compare and provide examples of prokaryotic and eukaryotic organisms. Identify the characteristics of living things.Quiz, Flash Cards, Worksheet, Game Cells
7.LS.2. Create a model to show how the cells in multicellular organisms repeatedly divide to make more cells for growth and repair as a result of mitosis. Explain how mitosis is related to cancer.Quiz, Flash Cards, Worksheet, Game Meiosis Quiz, Flash Cards, Worksheet, Game Mitosis
7.LS.4. Research and describe the functions and relationships between various cell types, tissues, and organs in the immune system, circulatory system and digestive system of the human body.

IN.7.PS.Physical Science (PS)
7.PS.1. Draw, construct models, or use animations to differentiate between atoms, elements, molecules, and compounds.
7.PS.2. Describe the properties of solids, liquids, and gases. Develop models that predict and describe changes in particle motion, density, temperature, and state of a pure substance when thermal energy is added or removed.
7.PS.3. Investigate the Law of Conservation of Mass by measuring and comparing the mass of a substance before and after a change of state.
7.PS.4. Investigate Newton’s first law of motion (Law of Inertia) and how different forces (gravity, friction, push and pull) affect the velocity of an object.
7.PS.5. Investigate Newton’s second law of motion to show the relationship among force, mass and acceleration.
7.PS.6. Investigate Newton’s third law of motion to show the relationship between action and reaction forces.
7.PS.7. Construct a device that uses one or more of Newton’s laws of motion. Explain how motion, acceleration, force, and mass are affecting the device.
7.PS.8. Investigate a process in which energy is transferred from one form to another and provide evidence that the total amount of energy does not change during the transfer when the system is closed. (Law of conservation of energy)
7.PS.9. Compare and contrast the three types of heat transfer: radiation, convection, and conduction.
