Forces and Interactions
NGSS K-12 3 3-PS2-1 Plan and conduct an investigation to provide evidence of the effects of balanced and unbalanced forces on the motion of an object.
NGSS K-12 3 3-PS2-2 Make observations and/or measurements of an object’s motion to provide evidence that a pattern can be used to predict future motion.
NGSS K-12 3 3-PS2-3 Ask questions to determine cause and effect relationships of electric or magnetic interactions between two objects not in contact with each other.
NGSS K-12 3 3-PS2-4 Define a simple design problem that can be solved by applying scientific ideas about magnets.
Interdependent Relationships in Ecosystems NGSS
NGSS K-12 3 3-LS2-1 Construct an argument that some animals form groups that help members survive.
NGSS K-12 3 3-LS4-1 Analyze and interpret data from fossils to provide evidence of the organisms and the environments in which they lived long ago
NGSS 3-LS4-3 Construct an argument with evidence that in a particular habitat some organisms can survive well, some survive less well, and some cannot survive at all.
NGSS K-12 3 3-LS4-4 Make a claim about the merit of a solution to a problem caused when the environment changes and the types of plants and animals that live there may change.
NGSS Conduct an investigation to determine whether the mixing of two or more substances results in new substances.
NGSS K-12 3 3-5-ETS1-1 Define a simple design problem reflecting a need or a want that includes specified criteria for success and constraints on materials, time, or cost.
NGSS K-12 3 3-5-ETS1-2 Generate and compare multiple possible solutions to a problem based on how well each is likely to meet the criteria and constraints of the problem.
NGSS K-12 3 3-5-ETS1-3 Plan and carry out fair tests in which variables are controlled and failure points are considered to identify aspects of a model or prototype that can be improved.
