SC.1.E.EARTH SCIENCE: EXPLORING THE SUN AND MOON
EARTH SCIENCE: EXPLORING THE SUN AND MOON
1.E.3. The student will demonstrate an understanding of the patterns of the Sun and the Moon and the Sun’s effect on Earth.1.E.3A. Conceptual Understanding: Objects in the sky move in predictable patterns. Some objects are better seen in the day sky and some are better seen in the night sky. The Sun is a star that provides heat and light energy for Earth. Students who demonstrate this understanding can:1. E.3A.1. Use, analyze, and interpret data from observations to describe and predict seasonal patterns of sunrise and sunset.Quiz, Flash Cards, Worksheet, Game & Study Guide The seasons
1.E.3A.2. Use data from personal observations to describe, predict, and develop models to exemplify how the appearance of the moon changes over time in a predictable pattern.
1.E.3A.4. Conduct structured investigations to answer questions about the effect of sunlight on Earth’s surface.
1.E.3A.5. Define problems related to the warming effect of sunlight and design possible solutions to reduce its impact on a particular area.
1.E.4. The student will demonstrate an understanding of the properties and uses of Earth’s natural resources.1.E.4A. Conceptual Understanding: Earth is made of different materials, including rocks, sand, soil, and water. An Earth material is a resource that comes from Earth. Earth materials can be classified by their observable properties. Students who demonstrate this understanding can:1.E.4A.1. Analyze and interpret data from observations and measurements to compare the properties of Earth materials (including rocks, soils, sand, and water).
1.E.4A.2. Develop and use models (such as drawings or maps) to describe patterns in the distribution of land and water on Earth and classify bodies of water (including oceans, rivers and streams, lakes, and ponds).
1.E.4B. Conceptual Understanding: Natural resources are things that people use that come from Earth (such as land, water, air, and trees). Natural resources can be conserved. Students who demonstrate this understanding can:1.E.4B.1. Obtain and communicate information to summarize how natural resources are used in different ways (such as soil and water to grow plants; rocks to make roads, walls, or buildings; or sand to make glass).
1.E.4B.2. Obtain and communicate information to explain ways natural resources can be conserved (such as reducing trash through reuse, recycling, or replanting trees).

SC.1.L.LIFE SCIENCE: PLANTS AND THEIR ENVIRONMENTS
LIFE SCIENCE: PLANTS AND THEIR ENVIRONMENTS
1.L.5. The student will demonstrate an understanding of how the structures of plants help them survive and grow in their environments.1.L.5A. Conceptual Understanding: Plants have specific structures that help them survive, grow, and produce more plants. Plants have predictable characteristics at different stages of development. Students who demonstrate this understanding can:1.L.5A.1. Obtain and communicate information to construct explanations for how different plant structures (including roots, stems, leaves, flowers, fruits, and seeds) help plants survive, grow, and produce more plants.Quiz, Flash Cards, Worksheet, Game & Study Guide Plants
1.L.5A.2. Construct explanations of the stages of development of a flowering plant as it grows from a seed using observations and measurements.Quiz, Flash Cards, Worksheet, Game & Study Guide Plants
1.L.5B. Conceptual Understanding: Plants have basic needs that provide energy in order to grow and be healthy. Each plant has a specific environment where it can thrive. There are distinct environments in the world that support different types of plants. These en Students who demonstrate this understanding can:1.L.5B.1. Conduct structured investigations to answer questions about what plants need to live and grow (including air, water, sunlight, minerals, and space).
1.L.5B.2. Develop and use models to compare how the different characteristics of plants help them survive in distinct environments (including deserts, forests, and grasslands).
SC.1.P.PHYSICAL SCIENCE: EXPLORING LIGHT AND SHADOWS
PHYSICAL SCIENCE: EXPLORING LIGHT AND SHADOWS
1.P.2. The student will demonstrate an understanding of the properties of light and how shadows are formed.1.P.2A. Conceptual Understanding: Objects can only be seen when light shines on them. Some materials allow light to pass through them; others allow only some light to pass through; and some do not allow any light to pass through and will create a shadow of the ob Students who demonstrate this understanding can:1.P.2A.1.
