Grade 5
Physical Sciences
- 1.
Analyze and interpret data to explain that matter of any type can be subdivided into particles too small to see and, in a closed system, if properties change or chemical reactions occur, the amount of matter stays the same.5.P1U1.1
- 2.
Plan and carry out investigations to demonstrate that some substances combine to form new substances with different properties and others can be mixed without taking on new properties.5.P1U1.2
- 3.
Construct an explanation using evidence to demonstrate that objects can affect other objects even when they are not touching.5.P2U1.3
- 4.
Obtain, analyze, and communicate evidence of the effects that balanced and unbalanced forces have on the motion of objects.5.P3U1.4
