State Standards : Structure of Matter: ..........................Each of the more than 100 elements of matter has distinct properties and a distinct atomic structure. .................. .................All forms of matter are composed of one or more of the elements. As a basis for understanding this concept: 1.Students know the structure of the atom and know it is composed of protons, neutrons, and electrons. 2. Students know that compounds are formed by combining two or more different elements and that compounds have properties that are different from their constituent elements. 3. Students know atoms and molecules form solids by building up repeating patterns, such as the crystal structure of NaCl or long-chain polymers. 4. Students know the states of matter (solid, liquid, gas) depend on molecular motion. 5. Students know that in solids the atoms are closely locked in position and can only vibrate; in liquids the atoms and molecules are more loosely connected and can collide with and .................. move past one another; and in gases the atoms and molecules are free to move independently, colliding frequently. 6.Students know how to use the periodic table to identify elements in simple compounds. |

Grade CA State Science Standards: PHYSICS Motion 1. The velocity of an object is the rate of change of its position. As a basis for understanding this concept, students know: a. position is defined relative to some choice of standard reference point and a set of reference directions. b. average speed is the total distance traveled divided by the total time elapsed. The speed of an object along the path traveled can vary. c. how to solve problems involving distance, time, and average speed. d. to describe the velocity of an object one must specify both direction and speed. e. changes in velocity can be changes in speed, direction, or both. f. how to interpret graphs of position versus time and speed versus time for motion in a single direction. Forces 2. Unbalanced forces cause changes in velocity. As a basis for understanding this concept, students know: a. a force has both direction and magnitude. b. when an object is subject to two or more forces at once, the effect is the cumulative effect of all the forces. c. when the forces on an object are balanced, the motion of the object does not change. d. how to identify separately two or more forces acting on a single static object, including gravity, elastic forces due to tension or compression in matter, and friction. e. when the forces on an object are unbalanced the object will change its motion (that is, it will speed up, slow down, or change direction). f. the greater the mass of an object the more force is needed to achieve the same change in motion. g. the role of gravity in forming and maintaining planets, stars and the solar system. |
