Priority Academic Student Skills: SCIENCE Grade 8 Standards for Inquiry, Physical, Life, and Earth/Space Science The Priority Academic Student Skills (PASS) should be taught by investigating content, concepts, and principles of major themes in Physical, Life, and Earth/Space Sciences. SCIENCE PROCESSES AND INQUIRY Grade 8 Process Standard 1: Observe and Measure - Observing is the first action taken by the learner to acquire new information about an object, organism, or event. Opportunities for observation are developed through the use of a variety of scientific tools. Measurement allows observations to be quantified.

10 Prentice Hall Science Explorer: Life, Earth, and 2005 PHYSICAL SCIENCE Grade 8 Standard 1: Properties and Chemical Changes in Matter - Physical characteristics of objects can be described using shape, size, and mass. The materials from which objects are made can be described using color, texture, and hardness. These properties can be used to distinguish and separate one substance from another. The student will engage in investigations that integrate the process standards and lead to the discovery of the following objectives: 1. Substances react chemically with other substances to form new substances with different characteristics (e.g., rusting, burning, reaction between baking soda and vinegar). 2. Matter has physical properties that can be measured (i.e., mass, volume, temperature, color, texture, density, and hardness). In chemical reactions and physical changes, matter is conserved (e.g., compare and contrast physical and chemical changes).
