1 Learning Performance Indicators Possible Evidence 1 Standards 1 st 2 nd 3 rd 4 th Characteristics of Science Understands the nature Clear and active of scientific inquiry. S5CS8a-d Scientific investigations may take different forms, including observing what things are like or what is happening somewhere, collecting specimens for analysis, and doing experiments. Some scientific knowledge is very old and yet is still applicable today. Use technology to increase their power to observe things and to measure and compare things accurately. Clear and active Carefully distinguish observations from ideas and speculation about those observations. Identify patterns of change in things-such as steady, repetitive, or irregular change-using records, tables, or graphs of measurements where appropriate. Some scientific knowledge is very old and yet is still applicable today. Clear and active Observe and describe how parts influence one another in things with many parts. Take responsibility for understanding the importance of being safety conscious. Choose appropriate common materials for making simple mechanical constructions and repairing things. Observe and describe how parts influence one another in things with many parts. Use diagrams and sketches to represent corresponding features of objects. Clear and active Observe and describe how parts influence one another in things with many parts. Add, subtract, multiply, and divide whole numbers mentally, on paper, and with a calculator Some scientific knowledge is very old and yet is still applicable today.
