|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Engineering Litter Collectors | RI | Rhode Island Science Standards (NGSS) | 1-LS1-1 | 1 |
Use materials to design a solution to a human problem by mimicking how plants and/or animals use their external parts to help them survive, grow, and meet their needs. |
| Parent and Offspring Behaviors | RI | Rhode Island Science Standards (NGSS) | 1-LS1-2 | 1 |
Read texts and use media to determine patterns in behavior of parents and offspring that help offspring survive. |
| Plant Structures | RI | Rhode Island Science Standards (NGSS) | 1-LS3-1 | 1 |
Make observations to construct an evidence-based account that young plants and animals are like, but not exactly like, their parents. |
| Parent and Offspring Behaviors | RI | Rhode Island Science Standards (NGSS) | 1-LS3-1 | 1 |
Make observations to construct an evidence-based account that young plants and animals are like, but not exactly like, their parents. *Students focus on animals in this unit. |
| Living and Nonliving Things | RI | Rhode Island Science Standards (NGSS) | 1-LS3-1 | 1 |
Make observations to construct an evidence-based account that young plants and animals are like, but not exactly like, their parents. |
| Light | RI | Rhode Island Science Standards (NGSS) | 1-PS4-1 | 1 |
Make observations to construct an evidence-based account that objects in darkness can be seen only when illuminated. |
| Engineering Communication Devices | RI | Rhode Island Science Standards (NGSS) | 1-PS4-1 | 1 | Use tools and materials to design and build a device that uses light or sound to solve the problem of communicating over a distance. |
| Sounds and Senses | RI | Rhode Island Science Standards (NGSS) | 1-PS4-1 | 1 | Plan and conduct investigations to provide evidence that vibrating materials can make sound and that sound can make materials vibrate. |
| Making Sounds and Instruments | RI | Rhode Island Science Standards (NGSS) | 1-PS4-1 | 1 |
Plan and conduct investigations to provide evidence that vibrating materials can make sound and that sound can make materials vibrate. |
| Materials and Light | RI | Rhode Island Science Standards (NGSS) | 1-PS4-3 | 1 |
Plan and conduct investigations to determine the effect of placing objects made with different materials in the path of a beam of light. |
