Plate tectonics accounts for important features of Earth s surface and major geologic events. As a basis for understanding this concept: a. Students know evidence of plate tectonics is derived from the fit of the continents; the location of earthquakes, volcanoes, and midocean ridges; and the distribution of fossils, rock types, and ancient climatic zones. b. Students know Earth is composed of several layers: a cold, brittle lithosphere; a hot, convecting mantle; and a dense, metallic core. c. Students know lithospheric plates the size of continents and oceans move at rates of centimeters per year in response to movements in the mantle. d. Students know that earthquakes are sudden motions along breaks in the crust called faults and that volcanoes and fissures are locations where magma reaches the surface. e. Students know major geologic events such as: earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, and mountain building, result from plate motions. 6-1, 6-2, 6-3, 6-4, 6-5, 6-6; LA: 148-149; 152-153 1-3, 3-2, 6-2, 6-3, 6-5, 6-6; LA: 82-83, 148-149; 84-85 6-1, 6-2, 6-3, 6-4, 6-5, 6-6; LA: 148-149; pgs.152-153 5-5, 5-6, 5-7, 5-10, 6-2, 6-3, 6-5, 6-6 5-1, 5-2, 5-3, 5-4, 5-5, 5-6, 5-7, 5-8, 5-9, 5-10, 6-2, 6-3, 6-4, 6-5, 6-6; LA: 148-149; 152-153 1-3, 16-6 1-3, 16-6 1-3, 16-6 Bookworks, Santa Fe 1

GRADE 6, cont. Plate Tectonics and Earth s Structure, cont. f. Students know how to explain major features of California geology (including mountains, faults, volcanoes) in terms of plate tectonics. g. Students know how to determine the epicenter of an earthquake and know that the effects of an earthquake on any region vary, depending on the size of the earthquake, the distance of the region from the epicenter, the local geology, and the type of construction in the region. Shaping Earth s Surface 2. Topography is reshaped by the weathering of rock and soil and by the transportation and deposition of sediment. As a basis for understanding this concept: a. Students know water running downhill is the dominant process in shaping the landscape, including California s landscape. b. Students know rivers and streams are dynamic systems that erode, transport sediment, change course, and flood their banks in natural and recurring patterns. c.

Students know that as multicellular organisms develop, their cells 2-6, 5-2, 5-3, 6-4, 6-5, 7-1 differentiate. Genetics 2. A typical cell of any organism contains genetic instructions that specify its traits. Those traits may be modified by environmental influences. As a basis for understanding this concept: a.

Students know that living organisms are made of molecules consisting largely of carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, oxygen, phosphorus, and sulfur. c. Students know that living organisms have many different kinds of molecules, including small ones, such as water and salt, and very large ones, such as carbohydrates, fats, proteins, and DNA. 2-1, 2-2, 2-3, 3-2, 3-4, 3-6, 4-6, 7-2, 7-4, 15-1, 15-7, 15-8, 15-9, 18-1, 18-6; 60-61, 84-85, 104-105, 364-365 12-7 2-1, 9-1, 9-3, 12-1, 12-2, 12-3, 12-4 1-2, 1-5, 3-7, 3-8, 3-9, 4-2, 7-1, 7-2, 7-3, 7-4, 7-5, 7-6, 8-1, 8-2, 8-3, 8-4, 8-5, 8-6, 8-7, 9-1, 9-2, 9-3, 9-4, 9-5, 9-6, 10-1, 10-3, 10-4, 10-5, 11-1, 11-2, 11-3, 16-1, 16-5, 16-6, 16-7, 20-2, 20-3; LA: 170-171 1-2, 1-3, 1-4, 1-5, 4-3, 4-7, 16-3, 16-4; LA: 28-29, 142-143; 24-25 172-173 9-1, 9-2, 9-3, 9-4, 9-5, 9-6; LA: 198-199; 200-201 1-3, 4-3, 11-1, 12-8, 12-9, 14-2, 15-1, 15-5, 16-4, 16-6 58-59 1-2, 12-8, 12-9 58-59 1-2, 2-5, 2-6, 2-7, 2-8, 2-9, 3-3, 12-8, 12-9, 14-1, 14-2 15-1 3-1, 3-10, 4-2, 4-7, 4-8, 11-1; 236-237 15-1 3-1, 3-10, 4-2, 4-7, 4-8, 11-1; 98-99, 236-237 3-1, 3-10, 4-2, 4-7, 4-8, 11-1; 98-99, 236-237 Bookworks, Santa Fe 25

GRADE 8, cont. Periodic Table 7. The organization of the periodic table is based on the properties of the elements and reflects the structure of atoms. As a basis for understanding this concept: a. Students know how to identify regions corresponding to metals, nonmetals, and inert gases. b. Students know each element has a specific number of protons in the nucleus (the atomic number) and each isotope of the element has a different but specific number of neutrons in the nucleus. c. Students know substances can be classified by their properties, including their melting temperature, density, hardness, and thermal and electrical conductivity. Density and Buoyancy 8. All objects experience a buoyant force when immersed in a fluid. As a basis for understanding this concept: 2-1, 2-2, 2-3; Appendix E 3-7, 3-8, 3-9, 10-1, 10-2, 10-3, 10-4, 10-5, 10-6, 11-1, 11-2, 11-3, 11-4; Appendix: B and C; LA: 222-223, 240-241; 66-67, 216-217, 236-237 2-1, 2-2, 2-3 3-1, 3-2, 3-3, 3-4, 3-5, 3-6, 3-7, 3-8, 3-9, 3-10; Appendix: B and C; LA: 74-75 2-4, 2-5, 2-6, 2-7, 3-1, 3-2, 3-3, 3-4, 3-5, 3-6, 3-7, 3-8, 4-3, 4-4, 10-3, 10-4, 11-4, 12-4; 84-85 There are many opportunities in the textbook that would enable students to classify substances by their properties (e.g., 1-2, 1-3, 1-4, 2-1, 2-2, 3-8, 9-1, 9-2, 9-3, 9-4, 16-1, 16-2, 16-3, 16-4, 16-5, 16-6, 16-7, 16-8, 16-9, 20-3, 20-4). a. Students know density is mass per unit volume. 2-5 2-1, 2-2, 2-3, 2-4; LA: 42-43 b. Students know how to calculate the density of substances (regular and irregular solids and liquids) from measurements of mass and volume. c. Students know the buoyant force on an object in a fluid is an upward force equal to the weight of the fluid the object has displaced. 2-5 2-1, 2-2, 2-3, 2-4; LA: 42-43 Discussion will be necessary to explain the buoyant force of the continents: 6-4 2-4, 2-5; 46-47 d. Students know how to predict whether an object will float or sink. 2-1, 2-2, 2-3, 2-4, 2-5; 46-47 Bookworks, Santa Fe 26
