1 Strand 6: Composition and Structure of the Universe and the Motion of the Objects within It UN.1.A.5.a Observe and identify the Earth is one of several planets within a solar system that orbits the Sun. UN.1.A.5.b Observe and identify the Moon orbits the Earth in about a month. UN.1.A.5.c Identify that planets look like stars and appear to move across the sky among the stars. UN.1.B.5.a Describe the physical features of the planet Earth that allows life to exist such as air, water, temperature and compare these to the physical features of the Sun, the Moon, and other planets. How does the movement of planets (and Earth) relate to the Sun? What is the relationship between the Earth and the moon? How does the movement of earth cause apparent motion within our solar system? (specific to planets and stars) What physical features of Earth allow life to exist in comparison to other planets, the moon, and the Sun? * orbit * apparent motion * Revolution * rotation * constellation * solar system * elliptical Buckle Down Unit 4 Review 17 Discovery Education Listing and naming the planets is not an expected standard although is commonly taught The focus of this unit is Earths relationship with the universe (planets, Sun, Moon, Stars) * gravity Students need to know the phases of the moon and be able to list in order using pictures Last Updated August 2014 Page 1

2 Strand 6: Composition and Structure of the Universe and the Motion of the Objects within It UN.2.B.5.a Sequences images of the lit portion of the Moon seen from Earth as it cycles day-today in about a month in order of occurrence.( UN.2.C.5.a Identify that the Earth rotates once every 24 hours. What are the moon phases as seen from Earth? What is the effect of the rotation of the Earth? -phases Moon Phases: Full Moon First Quarter New Moon Last Quarter -axis UN.2.C.5.b Relate changes in the length and position of a shadow to the time of day and apparent position of the Sun in the sky, as determined by Earth's rotation. UN.2.C.5.c Relate the apparent motion of the Sun, Moon, and starts in the sky to the rotation of the Earth. How can I use shadows on Earth to determine the time of day and the position of the sun? How does the movement of earth cause apparent motion within our solar system? (specific to Sun, Moon, and Earth) Last Updated August 2014 Page 2

3 Strand 1: Properties and Principles of Matter and Energy Energy ME.2.A.5.a Observe and explain light being transferred from the source to the receiver (eye) through space in straight lines. ME.2.A.5.b Observe and explain how an object (moon, mirror, objects in a room) can only be seen when light is reflected from that object to the receiver (eye). Matter ME.1.C.5.a Describe how changes in state provide evidence that matter is made of particles too small to be seen. How is light transferred from the source to the receiver (eye)? How does light energy affect the ability to view objects? How do changes in state provide evidence that matter is made of particles? * receiver * transparent * opaque * translucent * reflect * luminous * solid * liquid * gas * matter * mass * molecules Buckle down unit 2 review 6 Buckle Down Unit 2 review 4 Textbook chapter 11- Lessons 1, 3, and 4 These standards are often tied into moon phases. Students should have a basic understanding of matter properties difference of mass vs. weight. Be able to differentiate among molecules Last Updated August 2014 Page 3

4 Strand 1: Properties and Principles of Matter and Energy ME.1.D.5.a Classify matter as a solid, liquid or a gas, as it exists at room temperature using physical properties. ME.1.D.5.b Predict the effect of heat (thermal energy) on the physical properties of water as it changes to and from a solid, liquid, or gas. ME.1.I.5.a Observe the mass of water remains constant as it changes state. How do different types of matter exist at room temperature? What effect does heat have on physical properties of water? How does mass of water relate through changes of state? (law of conservation) * physical properties * physical changes * chemical changes * thermal energy * mass * Law of Conservation of Mass Chapter 12 from textbook Sciencesarus pages Mixtures and solutions is a 4 th grade standard and should be reviewed as time allows Teaching physical changes with chemical changes helps students determine the difference Last Updated August 2014 Page 4

5 Strand 5: Processes and Interactions of the Earth s Systems (Geosphere, Atmosphere, and Hydrosphere) ME.2.C.5.a Identify the Sun as the primary source of energy for temperature change on Earth. from Strand 1 What is the cause of temperature changes on Earth? ES.1.B.5.a Classify major bodies of surface water such as rivers, lakes, oceans, and glaciers as fresh or salt water, flowing or stationary, large or small, solid or liquid, surface or groundwater. How can I classify major bodies of water? Often taught in Social Studies during geography ES.1.C.5.a Recognize the atmosphere is composed of a mixture of gases, water, and minute particles. How is the atmosphere composed? Last Updated August 2014 Page 5

6 Strand 5: Processes and Interactions of the Earth s Systems (Geosphere, Atmosphere, and Hydrosphere) ES.2.E.5.a Describe and trace the path of water as it cycles through the hydrosphere, geosphere, and atmosphere using the terms evaporation, condensation, precipitation, surface run-off, and groundwater flow. ES.2.E.5.b Identify the different forms water can take such as snow, rain, sleet, fog, clouds, and dew as it moves through the water cycle. What is the path of water through the atmosphere? What are the different forms of water as it moves through the water cycle? * Evaporation * Condensation * Precipitation * Surface runoff * Groundwater flow * Water cycle * Snow * Rain * Sleet * Fog * Clouds * dew Text book pages Last Updated August 2014 Page 6

7 Strand 5: Processes and Interactions of the Earth s Systems (Geosphere, Atmosphere, and Hydrosphere) ES.2.F.5.a Identify and use appropriate tools such as a thermometer, anemometer, wind vane, rain gauge, satellite images, and weather maps to collect water data such as temperature, wind speed and direction, precipitation, and cloud type / cover. ES.2.F.5.b Identify and summarize relationships between weather data such as temperature and time of day, cloud cover and temperature, wind direction and temperature collected over a period of time. What instruments can be used to collect weather data? How can I use data to summarize weather relationships over a period of time? Thermometer Anemometer Wind vain Rain gauge Satellite Wind speed Hygrometer Barometer Last Updated August 2014 Page 7

8 Strand 5: Processes and Interactions of the Earth s Systems (Geosphere, Atmosphere, and Hydrosphere) ES.3.A.5.b Explain how major bodies of water are important natural resources for human activity such as food recreation, habitat, irrigation, solvent, and transportation. ES.3.A.5.b Describe how human needs and activities such as irrigation damming of rivers, waste management, and sources of drinking water have affected the quantity and quality of major bodies of fresh water. ES.3.A.5.c Propose solutions to problems related to water quality and availability that result from human activity What is the importance of major bodies of water to daily life? What is the effect of human needs on the quantity and quality of major bodies of fresh water? How can I identify problems and solutions related to water quality and availability?
