5.E.3. The student will demonstrate an understanding of how natural processes and human activities affect the features of Earth’s landforms and oceans.5.E.3A. Conceptual Understanding: Some of the land on Earth is located above water and some is located below the oceans. The downhill movement of water as it flows to the ocean shapes the appearance of the land. There are patterns in the location and structure of Students who demonstrate this understanding can:5.E.3A.1.

5.P.2B.3. Develop models using observations to describe mixtures, including solutions, based on their characteristics.Quiz, Flash Cards, Worksheet, Game & Study Guide Matter
5.P.5. The student will demonstrate an understanding of the factors that affect the motion of an object.5.P.5A. Conceptual Understanding: The motion of an object can be described in terms of its position, direction, and speed. The rate and motion of an object is determined by multiple factors. Students who demonstrate this understanding can:5.P.5A.1. Use mathematical and computational thinking to describe and predict the motion of an object (including position, direction, and speed).
5.P.5A.2. Develop and use models to explain how the amount or type of force (contact and non-contact) affects the motion of an object.
5.P.5A.3. Plan and conduct controlled scientific investigations to test the effects of balanced and unbalanced forces on the rate and direction of motion of objects.
5.P.5A.4. Analyze and interpret data to describe how a change of force, a change in mass, or friction affects the motion of an object.
5.P.5A.5. Design and test possible devices or solutions that reduce the effects of friction on the motion of an object.
