WI Modified NGSS3-5Crosscutting ConceptsSCI.CC1.3-5PatternsStudents identify similarities and differences in order to sort and classify natural objects and designed products. . .
WI Modified NGSS3-5Crosscutting ConceptsSCI.CC4.3-5Systems and System ModelsStudents understand a system is a group of related parts that make up a whole and can carry out functions its individual parts cannot. They also describe a system in terms of its components and their interactions.
WI Modified NGSS3-5Physical ScienceSCI.PS3.B.4Conservation of Energy and Energy TransferEnergy can be moved from place to place by moving objects, or through sound, light, or electrical currents. Energy can be converted from one form to another form.
WI Modified NGSS3-5Science and Engineering PracticesSCI.SEP1.A.3-5Asking QuestionsStudents ask questions that specify qualitative relationships. This includes the following: Ask questions about what would happen if a variable is changed. . . Ask questions that can be investigated and predict reasonable outcomes based on patterns such as cause and effect relationships.
WI Modified NGSS3-5Science and Engineering PracticesSCI.SEP1.A.mAsking QuestionsStudents ask questions to specify relationships between variables and clarify arguments and models. . . . This includes the following: Ask questions that require sufficient and appropriate empirical evidence to answer.
WI Modified NGSS6-8Crosscutting ConceptsSCI.CC3.mScale, Proportion, and QuantityStudents observe time, space, and energy phenomena at various scales using models to study systems that are too large or too small. . .
WI Modified NGSS6-8Crosscutting ConceptsSCI.CC4.mSystems and System ModelsStudents . . . use models to represent systems and their interactions such as inputs, processes, and outputs; and energy, matter, and information flows within systems.
WI Modified NGSSK-12Science and Engineering PracticesSCI.SEP2Developiong ModelsStudents develop and use models, in conjunction with using crosscutting concepts and disciplinary core ideas, to make sense of phenomena and solve problems.
WI Modified NGSSK-12Science and Engineering PracticesSCI.SEP3.APlanning and Conducting InvestigationsStudents plan and carry out investigations, in conjunction with using crosscutting concepts and disciplinary core ideas, to make sense of phenomena and solve problems.
WI Modified NGSSK-12Science and Engineering PracticesSCI.SEP4Analyze and Interpret DataStudents analyze and interpret data, in conjunction with using crosscutting concepts and disciplinary core ideas, to make sense of phenomena and solve problems.
WI Modified NGSSK-12Science and Engineering PracticesSCI.SEP6Construct an ExplanationStudents construct explanations and design solutions, in conjunction with using crosscutting concepts and disciplinary core ideas, to make sense of phenomena and solve problems.
WI Modified NGSSK-12Science and Engineering PracticesSCI.SEP8Obtain, Evaluate, and Communicate InformationStudents will obtain, evaluate and communicate information, in conjunction with using crosscutting concepts and disciplinary core ideas, to make sense of phenomena and solve problems.
