TOPIC: Changes in Plants and Animals
|
STANDARD 3020-01: Students will compare changes
and adaptations of plants and animals.
OBJECTIVES:
- 3020-0102: Compare ways that animals care for their
young.
- Identify how some mammals, insects, birds, reptiles,
etc., care for their young.
- Determine a general relationship between the number
of offspring and parental behavior.
Part of Seaworld's
Animal Information Database includes information
about how some animals care for their young, such
as: killer
whale,
tiger, flamingo,
birds
of prey, sea
turtles, and more.

data about properties of light and communicate
observations.
OBJECTIVES:
OBJECTIVES:
STANDARD 3020-04: Students will investigate
and describe the effect of light on heating
objects of various colors.
OBJECTIVES:
- 3020-0401: Compare and graph the heating
by light of different colored objects.
- Measure and record temperatures of objects
placed in light.
- Graph and communicate temperature measurements
of objects heated by light.
- Communicate conclusions about the effect
of color and heating by light.
OBJECTIVES:
- 3020-0402: Observe and communicate the effect
of changing the distance from a light source.
- Predict the relative heating effect
by light on objects located at different
distances from a light source.
- Measure, graph, and record temperatures
of objects placed at different distances
from a light source.
- Communicate observation from heating
objects at different distances from a
light source.

STANDARD 3020-05: Students
will analyze objects in terms of the
materials of which they are made.
OBJECTIVES:
- 3020-0502: Compare and contrast
objects that are made of more than
one kind of material.
- From personal experience,
generate a list of objects that
are made of more than one kind
of material (complex objects).
- Describe the different materials
that are present in a complex
object.
- Construct a complex object
from simple materials.
- Compare and contrast the effects
of different physical manipulations
on complex objects.

STANDARD 3020-06:
Students will investigate
changes in rocks.
Rock

OBJECTIVES:
- 3020-0601: Examine and
discuss observable characteristics
of rock.
- Collect a variety
of rocks from different
locations and record
where they were found.
- Make a list of the
different characteristics
of collected rocks
(e.g., hard vs. soft,
shiny vs. dull, smooth
vs. rough, single
color vs. multi-colored).
- Make an illustration
of a rock that shows
two characteristics.
- 3020-0602: Relate properties
of rock to the uses of
rock.
- Discuss the uses
of various types of
rock.
- Contrast the ways
different rocks are
used for different
purposes.
- Discover and report
an unusual use for
rocks.
