Standard(s) |
SC.5.4.1 | Characterize matter we see as being made of particles too small to be seen (atoms/molecules). | 5-PS1-1 | |
SC.5.4.2 | Relate the physical properties of matter to the physical properties of the smallest particle of that matter. (H20 molecule vs. glass of water) | 5-PS1-2 | |
SC.5.4.3 | Describe the Law of Conservation of Matter in terms of mass in chemical and physical combinations of matter. | 5-PS1-2 | |
SC.5.4.4 | Describe evidence to use in determining whether a physical or chemical change has occurred. | 5-PS1-4 | |
SC.5.4.5 | Use evidence to describe the Law of Conservation of Matter when creating and separating mixtures. | 5-PS1-3 |
Academic Vocabulary: characterize, relate, describe, evidence |
