Alignment to Standards for KY
| Grade | Number | Standard |
|---|---|---|
| 4 | SC-4-I-S-3 | human interactions that impact the local environment |
| 4 | SC-4-I-S-6 | support or defend positions on real world environmental problems |
| 5 | SC-05-3.5.1 | cause and effect relationships between enhanced survival/reproductive success and particular biological adaptations (e.g., changes in structures, behaviors, and/or physiology) to generalize about the diversity of species. |
| Primary | SC-EP-3.4.3 | Students will describe the basic structures and related functions of plants and animals that contribute to growth, reproduction and survival. |
| Primary | SC-EP-3.4.3a | Each plant or animal has observable structures that serve different functions in growth, survival and reproduction. For example, humans have distinct body structures for walking, holding, seeing and talking. These observable structures should be explored |
| Primary | SC-P-UD-S-3 | Students will investigate adaptations that enable animals and plants to grow, reproduce and survive (e.g., movements, body coverings, method of reproduction) |
| Primary | SC-P-UD-S-4 | Students will analyze structures of plants and animals to make inferences about the types of environments for which they are suited |
| Primary | SC-P-UD-U-2 | plants and animals have features that help them live in different environments. |
| Primary | SC-P-UD-U-3 | some animals are alike in the way they look and in the things they do, and others are very different from one another. |
