9 NJCCS: NJCCCS: NJCCCS: NJCCCS: STANDARD 5.1 (Scientific Practices) All students will understand that science is both a body of knowledge and an evidence-based, modelbuilding enterprise that continually extends, refines, and revises knowledge. The four Science Practices strands encompass the knowledge and reasoning skills that students must acquire to be proficient in science A.1. Core scientific concepts and principles represent the conceptual basis for model-building and facilitate the generation of new and productive questions A.2. Results of observation and measurement can be used to build conceptual-based models and to search for core explanations A.3. Predictions and explanations are revised based on systematic observations, accurate measurements, and structured data/evidence. STANDARD 5.3 Life Science All students will understand that life science principles are powerful conceptual tools for making sense of the complexity, diversity, and interconnectedness of life on Earth. Order in natural systems arises in accordance with rules that govern the physical world, and the order of natural systems can be modeled and predicted through the use of mathematics A.1. All organisms are composed of cell(s). In multicellular organisms, specialized cells perform specialized functions. Tissues, organs, and organ systems are composed of cells and function to serve the needs of cells for food, air, and waste removal A.2. During the early development of an organism, cells differentiate and multiply to form the many specialized cells, tissues, and organs that compose the final organism. Tissues grow through cell division. STANDARD 5.3 Life Science All students will understand that life science principles are powerful conceptual tools for making sense of the complexity, diversity, and interconnectedness of life on Earth. Order in natural systems arises in accordance with rules that govern the physical world, and the order of natural systems can be modeled and predicted through the use of mathematics C.1. Symbiotic interactions among organisms of different species can be classified as Predator/prey Parasite/host Scavenger/prey Decomposer/prey D.1. Some organisms reproduce asexually. In these organisms, all genetic information comes from a single parent. Some organisms reproduce sexually, through which half of the genetic information comes from each parent. STANDARD 5.3 Life Science All students will understand that life science principles are powerful conceptual tools for making sense of the complexity, diversity, and interconnectedness of life on Earth. Order in natural systems arises in accordance with rules that govern the physical world, and the order of natural systems can be modeled and predicted through the use of mathematics B.1 Food is broken down to provide energy for the work that cells do, and is a source of the molecular building blocks from which needed materials are assembled B.2. All animals, including humans, are consumers that meet their energy needs by eating other organisms or their products.
10 5.1.8.B.1. Evidence is generated and evaluated as part of building and refining models and explanations B.2. Mathematics and technology are used to gather, analyze, and communicate results B.3. Carefully collected evidence is used to construct and defend arguments B.4. Scientific reasoning is used to support scientific conclusions C.1. Scientific models and understandings of fundamental concepts and principles are refined as new evidence is considered C.2. Predictions and explanations are revised to account more completely for available evidence C.3. Science is a practice in which an established body of knowledge is continually revised, refined, and extended D.1. Science involves practicing productive social B.1. Food is broken down to provide energy for the work that cells do, and is a source of the molecular building blocks from which needed materials are assembled B.2. All animals, including humans, are consumers that meet their energy needs by eating other organisms or their products STANDARD 5.2 Physical Science All students will understand that physical science principles, including fundamental ideas about matter, energy, and motion, are powerful conceptual tools for making sense of phenomena in physical, living, and Earth systems A.1. All matter is made of atoms. Matter made of only one type of atom is called an element A.2. All substances are composed of one or more of approximately 100 elements A.3. Properties of solids, liquids, and gases are explained by a model of matter as composed of tiny particles D.2. The unique combination of genetic material from each parent in sexually reproducing organisms results in the potential for variation D.3. Characteristics of organisms are influenced by heredity and/or their environment E.1. Individual organisms with certain traits are more likely than others to survive and have offspring in particular environments. The advantages or disadvantages of specific characteristics can change when the environment in which they exist changes. Extinction of a species occurs when the environment changes and the characteristics of a species are insufficient to allow survival E.2. Anatomical evidence supports evolution and provides additional detail about the sequence of branching of various lines of descent C.1. Symbiotic interactions among organisms of different species can be classified as Predator/prey Parasite/host Scavenger/prey Decomposer/prey D.1. Some organisms reproduce asexually. In these organisms, all genetic information comes from a single parent. Some organisms reproduce sexually, through which half of the genetic information comes from each parent D.2. The unique combination of genetic material from each parent in sexually reproducing organisms results in the potential for variation E.1. Individual organisms with certain traits are more likely than others to survive and have offspring in particular environments. The advantages or disadvantages of specific characteristics can change when the environment in which they exist changes. Extinction of a species occurs when the
11 interactions with peers, such as partner talk, whole-group discussions, and small-group work D.2. In order to determine which arguments and explanations are most persuasive, communities of learners work collaboratively to pose, refine, and evaluate questions, investigations, models, and theories (e.g., argumentation, representation, visualization, etc.) D.3. Instruments of measurement can be used to safely gather accurate information for making scientific comparisons of objects and events D.4. Organisms are treated humanely, responsibly, and ethically. STANDARD 5.3 Life Science All students will understand that life science principles are powerful conceptual tools for making sense of the complexity, diversity, and interconnectedness of life on Earth. Order in natural systems arises in accordance with rules that govern the (atoms) in motion A.4. The Periodic Table organizes the elements into families of elements with similar properties A.5. Elements are a class of substances composed of a single kind of atom. Compounds are substances that are chemically formed and have physical and chemical properties that differ from the reacting substances. environment changes and the characteristics of a species are insufficient to allow survival E.2. Anatomical evidence supports evolution and provides additional detail about the sequence of branching of various lines of descent.
