Core Ideas ● Properties of Matter● Physical Attributes● Floating and Sinking
● Objects pull or push each other when they collide or are connected.
● Pushes and pulls can have different strengths and directions.
● Pushing or pulling on an object can change the speed or direction of its motion and can start or stop it.
● All animals need food to live and grow.
● Plants need water and light to live and grow.
● Animals can move around, but plants cannot.
● Living things can survive only where their needs are met.
● Living things exist in different places on land and in water.
● Rocks, soils, and sand● Plants and animals (including
humans) depend on the land, water, and air to live and grow.
● Living things need water, air, and resources from the land, and they try to live in places that have the things they need. (Will connect to life science.)
●Patterns of the motion of the Sun, moon, and stars in the sky, can be observed, described, and predicted.
●Some events on Earth occur in cycles, like day & night
●Animals and plants have different parts.●Plants and animals have predictable
characteristics at different stages of development. Plants and animals grow and change. Adult plants and animals can have young.

● Patterns● Cause and Effect● Energy and MatterMagnets can attract (pull) and repel (push) other magnets. Some objects move only when you touch them while others move without being touched. Move an object without letting students see the magnet. Allow students to freely explore with different magnets and objects. Let them generate questions.Narrow in on a few that can be investigated in the classroom.● When objects touch or collide, they push on one another and
can change motion or shape.

Core Ideas
● Geological processes● Formation and/or destruction
of landforms
● Grouping animals and plants by their internal and/or external structure
● Inherited traits● Acquired traits
● Magnification tools are needed to observe very small things
● Plant cell structure and function
● Animal cell structure and function
● Microorganisms can be helpful or harmful
● Static electricity● Current electricity (human-
harnessed)● Energy transfer● Simple electric circuit● Magnetic field and force● Release of stored energy● Insulators and conductors
of electricity
● Physical changes● Chemical changes● Phases/States of water are
related to temperature changes
● Energy transfer
