Resources

Benchmark

Indicator

 

A.   Observe constant and changing patterns of objects in the day and night sky.

1.   Recognize that there are more stars in the sky than anyone can easily count.

2.   Observe and describe how the sun, moon, and stars all appear to move slowly across the sky. Construct a model of the solar system and place the nine planets.

3.   Observe and describe how the moon appears a little different every day but looks nearly the same again about every four weeks. Recognize the different phases of the moon.

B.   Explain that living things cause changes on Earth.

1.   Explain that all organisms cause changes (natural and man-made) in the environment where they live; the changes can be very noticeable or slightly noticeable, fast or slow. (e.g., spread of grass cover slowing soil erosion, tree roots slowly breaking sidewalks, animals causing changes - beavers).

 

C.   Observe, describe and measure changes in the weather, both long term and short term.

4.   Observe and describe that some weather changes occur throughout the day and some changes occur in a repeating seasonal pattern.

5.   Describe weather by measurable quantities such as temperature and precipitation.

-          Graph temperature over time and interpret results

-          Read a Celsius or Fahrenheit thermometer to determine temperature

D.   Describe what resources are and recognize some are limited but can be extended through recycling or decreased   use.

2.   Identify that resources are things that we get from the living (e.g., forests) and nonliving (e.g., minerals, water) environment and that resources are necessary to meet the needs and wants of a population.

3.   Explain that the supply of many resources is limited but the supply can be extended through careful use, decreased use, reusing and/or recycling.
