K-2-ETS1-2 Develop a simple sketch, drawing, or physical model to illustrate how the shape of an object helps it function as needed to solve a given problem.

tudents will view and review schematics to fully comprehend the ideas/topics covered for states of matter, molecules, density, polarity, acids and bases, etc.

K-2-ETS1-3. Analyze data from tests of two objects designed to solve the same problem to compare the strengths and weaknesses of how each performs.

Students will compare strengths and weaknesses that happen in different topics such as density, polarity, and acids and bases.

2-PS1-1. Plan and conduct an investigation to describe and classify different kinds of materials by their observable properties.

Students will develop an understanding of Newtonian fluid when doing the Oobleck experiment that goes into different states of matter.

5-PS1-2. Measure and graph quantities to provide evidence that regardless of the type of change that occurs when heating, cooling, or mixing substances, the total weight of matter is conserved.

Students will learn how to mix quantities depending on the project and how quantities make a difference in providing great substances.

5-PS1-4. Conduct an investigation to determine whether the mixing of two or more substances results in new substances.

Students will gain an understanding of when mixing two substances to make a cleaning agent as well as making art with pH.

MS-PS1-1. Develop models to describe the atomic composition of simple molecules and extended structures.

Students will review atoms and molecules with the focus of learning how mixing molecules will create a new substance.

MS-PS1-5. 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.

Students will review atoms and molecules with the focus of learning how mixing molecules will create a new substance.

MS-PS1-2. Analyze and interpret data on the properties of substances before and after the substances interact to determine if a chemical reaction has occurred.

Students will create chemical reactions and learn how there are different kinds of chemical reactions and determine their properties.
