Q1 At A Glance

Q1 Standards

5-PS1-1. Develop a model to describe that matter is made of particles too small to be seen.

5-PS1-2. Measure and graph quantities to provide evidence that regardless of the type of change that occurs when heating, cooling, or mixing substances, the total weight of matter is conserved.


5-PS1-3. Make observations and measurements to identify materials based on their properties.


​5-PS1-4. Conduct an investigation to determine whether the mixing of two or more substances results in new substances.


​
Teaching-learning guide:  Mixtures

Q2 At A Glance

Picture
Q2 Science Standards:
5-ESS2-1. Develop a model using an example to describe ways the geosphere, biosphere, hydrosphere, and/or atmosphere interact.

5-ESS2-2. Describe and graph the amounts of saltwater and fresh water in various reservoirs to provide evidence about the distribution of water on Earth.
5-ESS3-1. *Evaluate potential solutions to problems that individual communities face in protecting the Earth’s resources and environment.

*Requires Engineering Design or linkage to Engineering, Technology, Science and Society
Picture
Helpful Info for teachers:
  • Learn how the geosphere, biosphere, hydrosphere and atmosphere interact.  Link

  • Check out these graphics of Earth's water.  Link
    ​
  • ​Pace yourself.  You may not need to venture into as much detail as the textbook offers for each lesson.  This information should be taught during Q2, so the unit should be finished by Winter break. ​

Q3 Standards


​Science

5-LS1-1. Support an argument with evidence that plants obtain materials they need for growth mainly from air and water.


5-LS2-1. Develop a model to describe the movement of matter among plants, animals, decomposers, and the environment.


5-ESS2-1. Develop a model using an example to describe ways the geosphere, biosphere, hydrosphere, and/or atmosphere interact.


5-PS3-1. Use models to describe that energy in animals’ food (used for body repair, growth, motion, and to maintain body warmth) was once energy from the sun.
