PA.3.Science and Technology and Engineering Education
Science and Technology and Engineering Education
3.1. Biological Sciences
3.1.A. Organisms and Cells
3.1.5.A2. Describe how life on earth depends on energy from the sun.
3.1.5.C1. Describe how organisms meet some of their needs in an environment by using behaviors (patterns of activities) in response to information (stimuli) received from the environment.
3.1.5.C2. Give examples of how inherited characteristics (e.g., shape of beak, length of neck, location of eyes, shape of teeth) may change over time as adaptations to changes in the environment that enable organisms to survive.
3.2. Physical Sciences: Chemistry and Physics
3.2.A. Chemistry
3.2.5.A1. Describe how water can be changed from one state to another by adding or taking away heat.
3.2.5.B4a. Demonstrate how electrical circuits provide a means of transferring electrical energy when heat, light, sound, and chemical changes are produced.
3.3.5.A1. Describe how landforms are the result of a combination of destructive forces such as erosion and constructive erosion, deposition of sediment, etc.
3.3.5.A3. Explain how geological processes observed today such as erosion, movement of lithospheric plates, and changes in the composition of the atmosphere are similar to those in the past.
3.3.5.A4. Explain the basic components of the water cycle.

3.3.B. Origin and Evolution of the Universe
3.3.5.B1. Provide evidence that the earth revolves around (orbits) the sun in a year's time and that the earth rotates on its axis once approximately every 24 hours.
SI.5. Use appropriate tools and technologies to gather, analyze, and interpret data and understand that it enhances accuracy and allows scientists to analyze and quantify results of investigations.
SI.6. Develop descriptions, explanations, and models using evidence and understand that these emphasize evidence, have logically consistent arguments, and are based on scientific principles, models, and theories.
SI.9. Understand that scientific investigations may result in new ideas for study, new methods, or procedures for an investigation or new technologies to improve data collection.
