---|---|---|
1 | SC-1.317 | compare and describe similarities and differences in physical properties of an assortment of solid objects. |
3 | SC-3.305 | observe a variety of Earths materials such as rocks, sand, and soil and sort the materials into groups based on similar physical properties. |
3 | SC-3.306 | examine an assortment of rocks and use appropriate measuring tools (balances, meter tapes, syringes) to gather data about the rocksĂȘ physical properties (length, circumference, weight). |
3 | SC-3.307 | examine rocks in order to identify their composition and to recognize that they are made up of more than one component. |
3 | SC-3.308 | recognize that rocks are composed of Earth materials called minerals that cannot be physically broken apart any further. |
3 | SC-3.309 | sort and group an assortment of minerals based on similarities and differences in their physical properties. |
3 | SC-3.310 | order or serrate a group of minerals based on such physical properties as hardness, color, and luster. |
3 | SC-3.311 | conduct simple tests (e.g., scratch test, fizz test) to identify rocksĂȘ mineral composition and record and discuss the test results. |
3 | SC-3.318 | observe and describe the physical properties of a variety of materials in order to construct classification systems which sort and group these materials. |
4 | SC-4.308 | sort and classify samples of Earth materials according to physical properties such as color, luster, weight relative to size, particle size, and hardness. |
4 | SC-4.309 | recognize that wearing away and moving soil and rock is erosion; the settling of eroded materials is deposition. |
K | SC-K.304 | sort, group, and regroup a variety of familiar living and nonliving things based on their physical properties (e.g., shape, color, texture, taste, size, etc.). |
