Alignment to Standards for AK
Grade | Number | Standard |
---|---|---|
3 | SC1.2 | describing how some traits (e.g., claws, teeth, camouflage) of living organisms have help |
3 | SC2 | structure, function, behavior, development, life cycles, and diversity of living organisms. |
3 | SC2.2 | observing and comparing external features of plants and of animals that may help them grow, survive, and reproduce |
3 | SD2 | forces that shape the structure, composition, and physical history of the Earth. |
3 | SD2.1 | forces that shape Earth: rivers, deltas, lakes, glaciers, mountains, valleys, and islands) |
4 | G-7 | understanding of position and direction by describing the relative location of places or objects on a map using compass directions of north, south, east, or west (L) (M5.2.6) |
4 | SD1.2 | the physical properties of water as they relate to the rock cycle |
4 | SD2 | origins, ongoing processes, and forces that shape the structure, composition, and physical history of the Earth. |
4 | SD2.1 | forces that shape Earth by observing models of how waves, wind, water, and ice shape and reshape the Earthês surface by eroding rock and soil (L) |
4 | SD2.2 | forces that shape Earth: earthquakes, tsunamis, volcanoes, floods, landslides, and avalanches) of rapid changes on the surface |
5 | G-8 | understanding of position and direction by locating points of given coordinates on a grid or identifying coordinates for a given point (e.g., items on a treasure map) (L) (M5.2.6) |
5 | SD1.1 | rock cycle showing that smaller rocks come from the breaking and weathering of larger rocks and that smaller rocks (e.g., sediments and sands) may combine with plant materials to form soil |
5 | SD2 | understanding of the origins, ongoing processes, and forces that shape the structure, composition, and physical history of the Earth. |
5 | SD2.1 | forces that shape Earth: how wind and water tear down and build up the Earthês surface resulting in new land formations (i.e., deltas, moraines, and canyons) |
