Alignment to Standards for KY
| Grade | Number | Standard |
|---|---|---|
| 5 | SC-5-BC-S-2 | adaptations of various organisms to their environments through observations as well as print and non-print based resources |
| 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-EP-4.6.1 | basic relationships of plants and animals in an ecosystem (food chains/interdependance). |
| Primary | SC-EP-4.6.2 | Plants make their own food. All animals depend on plants. Some animals eat plants for food. Other animals eat animals that eat the plants. Basic relationships and connections between organisms in food chains can be used to discover patterns within ecosystems |
| Primary | SC-P-BC-U-2 | understand that living things are found almost everywhere on our planet, but organisms living in one place may be different from those found somewhere else. |
| Primary | SC-P-ET-S-3 | basic relationships of plants and animals in an ecosystem (simple food chains and webs) |
| 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. |
