1 2 nd Science Notebook Insects & Plants Investigation 2: Brassica Seeds Name: 1

2 Alignment with New York State Science Standards & Performance Indicators Standard 1: Mathematical Analysis M1.1 Use mathematical notation and symbolism to communicate in mathematics and compare and describe quantities and relationships M2.1 Use simple logical reasoning to develop conclusions, recognizing that patterns and relationships assist them in making conclusions M3.1 Explore and solve problems using concrete objects and manipulatives such as a balance, graduated cylinder, ruler Standard 1: Scientific Inquiry S1.1 Ask why questions in attempts to seek greater understanding of events they have observed or heard about S1.2 Question the explanations they hear from others and read about, seek clarification, and compare to their own S1.3 Develop relationships among observations to construct tentative explanations for what they have observed S2.1 Develop written plans for exploring phenomena or for evaluating explanations guided by questions S2.2 Share their research plans with others and revise based on suggestions S2.3 Carry out plans for exploring phenomena using appropriate inquiry and process skills S3.1 Organize observations and measurements through classification and preparation of charts and tables S3.2 Interpret observations and measurements and recognize relationships S3.3 Share findings with others and seek their ideas S3.4 Adjust understandings based on findings or new ideas Standard 1: Engineering Design T1.3 Generate ideas for possible solutions, apply math and science skills, evaluate and determine the best solution, and justify your choices T1.5 Discuss how best to test the solution, perform, record, discuss, summarize, and suggest improvement 2

3 Alignment with New York State Science Standards & Performance Indicators Standard 4: Physical Environment 2.1e Extreme natural events may have positive or negative impacts on living things 3.1b Matter has properties that can be observed through the senses 3.1c Objects have properties that can be observed, described, and/or measured 3.1d Measurements can be made with standard metric units and nonstandard units (meteorology) Standard 4: Living Environment 1.1 Describe the characteristics of and variations between living and nonliving things 1.2 Describe the life processes common to all living things 2.2 Recognize that for humans and other living things there is genetic continuity between generations 3.1 Describe how the structures of plants and animals complement their environment 3.2 Observe that differences within the species may give individuals an advantage in surviving and reproducing 4.1 Describe the major stages in the life cycles of selected plants and animals 4.2 Describe evidence of growth, repair, and maintenance 5.1 Describe basic life functions of common living specimens 5.2 Describe some survival behaviors of common living specimens 6.1 Describe how plants and animals depend on each other and the nonliving environment Standard 6: Interconnectedness 1. Through systems thinking, they recognize commonalities that exist and how parts of a system interrelate and combine to perform special functions 2. Identifying patterns for change is necessary for making predictions about future behavior and conditions Standard 7: Interdisciplinary Problem Solving 1. The knowledge and skills of mathematics, science, and technology are used together to make informed decisions and solve problems 2. Solving interdisciplinary problems involves a variety of skills and strategies such as effective work habits, gathering information, generating ideas, 3 making connections, and presenting ideas

Each word is used once. water react dark leaves cold 1. All living things need water, food, air, are made up of cells, and to their environment. 2. In the experiment, the children learned many things. They learned that seeds need to germinate. Seeds can germinate in the,but plants won t grow well. They also learned that seeds don t germinate when it s too. 3. The roots of a plant absorb water and nutrients for the plant, but the use the sun s energy to make food for the plant. 22
