1 Earth Materials Investigation 1 (part 1 & 2) what scientists study earth materials. what properties help you identify a rock. definition of a rock. definition of a mineral.

2 Earth Materials Investigation 1 (part 3) how evaporation helps separate parts in a rock. the properties that help identify crystals. how salt crystals form. the shape and pattern of a salt crystal.

3 Earth Materials Investigation 1 (all lessons) why flour and sand are separated when mixing gray material with water in a vial. how to separate salt from water. how to identify crystals using a crystal identification key. definition of a rock. what properties help identify a mineral.

4 Earth Materials Investigation 2 (part 1) the difference between a rock and mineral. what properties you need to know and do not need to know to identify a mineral. which tools (fingernail, penny, paper clip) will scratch a mineral based on the hardness of the tool and how you know that tool will scratch the mineral.

5 Earth Materials Investigation 2 (all lessons) the size observations you can make for a rock. an example of an observation you might make for mass, color, or hardness. how to fill out a scratch test chart for a paper clip, penny, and fingernail. how to determine the hardest mineral based on a scratch test chart.

6 Earth Materials Investigation 3 (part 1) what mineral you are testing for when you use a cold acid like vinegar on a rock. what happens when you test a rock and it has this mineral.

7 Earth Materials Investigation 3 (all lessons) what happens in a vinegar test and which mineral is the only one to have a reaction to vinegar. what properties of a rock are important for determining the kind of rock. what observations help you determine if a stone is a rock or mineral and how they help you. how to use a crystal identification key and what properties help you identify a crystal.

8 Food Chains and Webs the four components in a habitat. how energy is passed between producers, consumers, and decomposers in a food chain. how building a grocery store will change the food chains and webs on a prairie. all vocabulary. which organism in a food chain is a producer, consumer, or decomposer. what items can be found in an owl pellet.

9 Magnetism & Electricity Investigation 1 an example of induced magnetism done in class. how distance between a magnet and an iron object affects the magnet s ability to work. how you would determine if an object is made of iron or aluminum. what will happen if either the same poles or opposite poles of a magnet are brought together. how objects become temporary magnets through induced magnetism.

10 Magnetism & Electricity Investigation 2 what supplies the power to a circuit. the definition of an insulator. what a circuit looks like if a bulb or motor works. how you would test an object to determine if it is a conductor or insulator of electricity.

11 Magnetism & Electricity Investigation 3 what a parallel and series circuit look like in a drawing or in a schematic diagram. why bulbs are dim in a series circuit and bright in a parallel circuit.

12 Magnetism & Electricity (all) various objects made of metal, whether or not the objects would stick to magnets, and whether or not the objects would conduct electricity. how to finish a drawing with wires to light a bulb. how distance between two magnets affects their ability to work and be able to explain the relationship. what a switch does in a circuit and how it will work in circuit when shown a schematic diagram. what circuit will run based off a schematic diagram. what direction two batteries should face in a series circuit. what a series and parallel circuit look like and what would happen to a bulb if a motor goes out in either a series or parallel circuit. talked over the options for the I-Check. This paper slip will be stapled to the graded I-Check. If a different paper is stapled to the I-Check, it indicates your child did not turn in this slip and
