Chemical formula Luster Cleavage Fracture Hardness Streak Specific gravity Solid Inorganic Naturally occurring Chemical composition Crystalline structure Oxygen Silicon SC.912.N.1.7 Recognize the role of creativity in constructing scientific questions, methods and explanations. SC.912.N.3.5 Describe the function of models in science, and identify the wide range of models used in science. SC.912.N.2.5: Describe instances in which scientists' varied backgrounds, talents, of scientists are a strength of science as they are a source of new, testable ideas that have the potential to add new evidence to support one or another of the Rocks Identify the processes in the rock cycle. Determine the physical and chemical processes that form igneous, metamorphic and sedimentary rocks. Explore methods used to identify a rock. Igneous rock Metamorphic rock Sedimentary rock Strata Weathering Erosion Cementation Fine-grained Coarse-grained Molten Magma Lava Extrusive Intrusive Foliated Non-foliated explanations. SC.912.L.17.9 Use a food web to identify and distinguish producers, consumers, and decomposers. Explain the pathway of energy transfer through trophic levels and the reduction of available energy at successive trophic levels. Weather and Climate Wind Nitrogen Oxygen
2 Determine the physical and chemical properties that occur in Earth s atmosphere to include layers in our atmosphere, why weather happens and what determines climate classification. Plate tectonics Explore the theories of Continental Drift and Sea Floor spreading and how they developed into the theory of Plate Tectonics. To include the processes involved in crustal movement and landforms associated with plate boundaries.
