Lesson Title Standards Grade ID Performance Expectations
Atoms & Molecules NGSS MS Physical Sciences MS-PS1-2 Develop models to describe the atomic composition of simple molecules and extended structures.
Chemical Reactions NGSS MS Physical Sciences MS-PS1-3 Analyze and interpret data on the properties of substances before and after the substances interact to determine if a chemical reaction has occurred.
Synthetic Materials NGSS MS Physical Sciences MS-PS1-4 Gather and make sense of information to describe that synthetic materials come from natural resources and impact society.
Intro to Thermal Energy NGSS MS Physical Sciences MS-PS1-5 Develop a model that predicts and describes changes in particle motion, temperature, and state of a pure substance when thermal energy is added or removed.
Chemical Reactions NGSS MS Physical Sciences MS-PS1-6 Develop and use a model to describe how the total number of atoms does not change in a chemical reaction and thus mass is conserved.
Intro to Thermal Energy NGSS MS Physical Sciences MS-PS1-7 Undertake a design project to construct, test, and modify a device that either releases or absorbs thermal energy by chemical processes.
Newton’s Laws of Motion NGSS MS Physical Sciences MS-PS2-2 Apply Newton’s Third Law to design a solution to a problem involving the motion of two colliding objects.
Newton’s Laws of Motion NGSS MS Physical Sciences MS-PS2-3 Plan an investigation to provide evidence that the change in an object’s motion depends on the sum of the forces on the object and the mass of the object.
Electric & Magnetic Fields NGSS MS Physical Sciences MS-PS2-4 Ask questions about data to determine the factors that affect the strength of electric and magnetic forces.
Gravitational Forces Between Objects NGSS MS Physical Sciences MS-PS2-5 Construct and present arguments using evidence to support the claim that gravitational interactions are attractive and depend on the masses of interacting objects.
Electric & Magnetic Fields NGSS MS Physical Sciences MS-PS2-6 Conduct an investigation and evaluate the experimental design to provide evidence that fields exist between objects exerting forces on each other even though the objects are not in contact.
Potential vs. Kinetic Energy NGSS MS Physical Sciences MS-PS3-2 Construct and interpret graphical displays of data to describe the relationships of kinetic energy to the mass of an object and to the speed of an object.
Potential vs. Kinetic Energy NGSS MS Physical Sciences MS-PS3-3 Develop a model to describe that when the arrangement of objects interacting at a distance changes, different amounts of potential energy are stored in the system.
Heat: Transfer of Thermal Energy NGSS MS Physical Sciences MS-PS3-4 Apply scientific principles to design, construct, and test a device that either minimizes or maximizes thermal energy transfer.
Heat: Transfer of Thermal Energy NGSS MS Physical Sciences MS-PS3-5 Plan an investigation to determine the relationships among the energy transferred, the type of matter, the mass, and the change in the average kinetic energy of the particles as measured by the temperature of the sample.
Potential vs. Kinetic Energy NGSS MS Physical Sciences MS-PS3-6 Construct, use, and present arguments to support the claim that when the kinetic energy of an object changes, energy is transferred to or from the object.
Wave Reflection, Absorption & Transmittance NGSS MS Physical Sciences MS-PS4-2 Develop and use a model to describe that waves are reflected, absorbed, or transmitted through various materials.
Sound Waves NGSS MS Physical Sciences MS-PS4-3 Integrate qualitative and quantitative information to describe how the frequency and wavelength of a wave depend on the medium through which it is traveling.
Electromagnetic Waves NGSS MS Physical Sciences MS-PS4-4 Construct and interpret graphical displays of data to describe the relationship between the wavelength and frequency of the electromagnetic spectrum.
Electromagnetic Waves NGSS MS Physical Sciences MS-PS4-5 Evaluate the evidence for the role of the electromagnetic spectrum in technology and everyday life.
