Grade Band Theme: Order and OrganizationThis theme focuses on helping students use scientific inquiry to discover patterns, trends, structures and relationships that may be described by simple principles. These principles are related to the properties or interactions within and between systems.

Science Inquiry and ApplicationDuring the years of grades 5-8 all students must use the following scientific processes to construct their knowledge and understanding in all science content areas:Identify questions that can be answered through scientific investigations;Design and conduct a scientific investigation;Use appropriate mathematics, tools and techniques to gather data and information;Analyze and interpret data;Develop descriptions, models, explanations and predictions;Think critically and logically to connect evidence and explanations;Recognize and analyze alternative explanations and predications; andCommunicate scientific procedures and explanations.Grade Band Connections: Systems can be described and understood by analysis of the interaction of their components. Energy, forces and motion combine to change the physical features of the Earth. The changes of the physical Earth and the species that have lived on Earth are found in the rock record. For species to continue, reproduction must be successful.

Earth and Space Science Physical Science Life ScienceTopic: Physical EarthThis topic focuses on the physical features of Earth and how they formed. This includes the interior of Earth, the rock record, plate tectonics and landforms.

Topic: Forces and Motion This topic focuses on forces and motion within, on and around the Earth and within the universe.

Topic: Species and ReproductionThis topic focuses on continuation of the species.

Content Statements Earth’s crust consists of major and minor tectonic plates that move relative to each other.

Historical data and observations such as fossil distribution, paleomagnetism, continental drift and sea-floor spreading….

Some forces between objects act when the objects are in direct contact or when they are not touching.

Magnetic, electrical and gravitational forces can act at a distance.

Diversity of species occurs through gradual processes over many generations. Fossil records provide evidence that changes have occurred in number and types of species.

Fossils provide important evidence of how life and environmental conditions have ….
