1 Guide to Exploratorium Activities That Align with California Science Content Standards The following activities are recommended by the Exploratorium Field Trips program as Exploratorium activities that align with the California Science Content Standards. The activities are organized by grade level and matched with the corresponding standard. Please note that for each activity it says whether it relates to California Science Content Standards or connects to California Science Content Standards. Relates to means that the activity has an implicit connection to the standard. To fully connect with the standard, it requires the teacher to deepen the experience with a classroom discussion. Connects to means that the activity explicitly connects to the standard.

As a basis for a. Students know that during chemical reactions the atoms in the reactants rearrange to form products with different properties. b. Students know all matter is made of atoms, which may combine to form molecules. Activity: Fog Chamber Learn how clouds are formed. In a bottle, cool the water vapor by changing the pressure and watch it turn into water droplets. Earth Sciences 3. Water on Earth moves between the oceans and on land through the processes of evaporation and condensation. As a basis for b. Student know when liquid evaporates, it turns into water vapor in the air and can reappear as a liquid when cooled or as a solid if cooled below the freezing point. c. Students know water vapor in the air moves from one place to another and can form fog or clouds, which are tiny droplets of water or ice, and can fall to Earth as rain, hail, sleet, or snow Exploratorium 6
7 Grade 6 Activity: Earthquake Science: Soil Liquefaction Learn what happens to sand and landfill during an earthquake by creating a model using simple materials. Focus on Earth Sciences Plate Tectonics and Earth s Structure 1.Plate tectonics accounts for important features of Earth s surface and major geologic events. As a basis for g. Students know how to determine the epicenter of an earthquake and know that the effects of an earthquake vary, depending on the size of the earthquake, the distance of the region from the epicenter, the local geology, and the type of construction in the region. Activity: Seismic Slinky! Explore the different types of waves traveling from an earthquake s epicenter by modeling them with a slinky. Focus on Earth Sciences Plate Tectonics and Earth s Structure 1.Plate tectonics accounts for important features of Earth s surface and major geologic events. As a basis for g. Students know how to determine the epicenter of an earthquake and know that the effects of an earthquake vary, depending on the size of the earthquake, the distance of the region from the epicenter, the local geology, and the type of construction in the region Exploratorium 7
8 Grade 7 Activity: Bird in a Cage Learn about the color-sensitive receptor cells (called cones) in the retina of your eye and what happens when they are stimulated by a particular wavelength of light. Focus on Life Sciences Physical Principles in Living Systems () 6. Physical principles underlie biological structures and functions. As a basis for e. Students know that white light is a mixture of many wavelengths (colors) and that retinal cells react differently to different wavelengths. Activity: Slide Projector Activities Investigate light, images, and lenses using a projector as your light source. Focus on Life Sciences Physical Principles in Living Systems () 6. Physical principles underlie biological structures and functions. As a basis for c. Students know that light travels in straight lines if the medium it travels through does not change. d.

Students know the buoyant force on an object in a fluid is an upward force equal to the weight of the fluid the object has displaced. Activity: Downhill Race Find out why two cylinders that look the same roll down a hill at different velocities. Motion 1.The velocity of an object is the rate of change of its position. As a basis for a. Students know position is defined in relation to some choice of a standard reference point and a set of reference directions. b. Students know that average speed is the total distance traveled divided by the total time elapsed and that the speed of an object along the path traveled can vary. d. Students know the velocity of an object must be described by specifying both the direction and the speed 2012 Exploratorium 9
10 Grade 8 (continued) Activity: Drawing Board Create a beautiful pattern with a pen and a moving pendulum. The diminishing size of the pattern demonstrates how friction dissipates the energy of a moving object. Motion 1.The velocity of an object is the rate of change of its position. As a basis for a. Students know position is defined in relation to some choice of a standard reference point and a set of reference directions. Force 2.Unbalanced forces cause changes in velocity. As a basis for understanding this concept: a. Students know a force has both direction and magnitude. b. Students know when an object is subject to two or more forces at once, the result is the cumulative effect of all the forces. e. Students know that when the forces on an object are unbalanced, the object will change its velocity (that is, it will speed up, slow down, or change direction). Activity: Gas Model Learn about states of matter by observing a model of the motion of molecules in a container. Structure of Matter 3. Each of the more than 100 elements of matter has distinct properties and a distinct atomic structure. All forms of matter are composed of one or more of the elements. As a basis for d. Students know the states of matter (solid, liquid, gas) depend on molecular motion. e. Students know that in solids the atoms are closely locked in position and can only vibrate; in liquids the atoms and molecules are more loosely connected and can collide with and move past one another; and in gases the atoms and molecules are free to move independently, colliding frequently Exploratorium 10
