P.1.2 Summarize the relationship between sound and objects of the body that vibrate eardrum and vocal cords. I Can Statements 1. I can locate objects that can make sounds. 2. I can make objects change sound and tell that these changes are either pitch or volume. 3. I can describe how an object changes either pitch or volume using different columns of air. 4. I can show what parts of the body produce and receive sound waves. 5. I can describe the parts of the outer, middle, and inner ear. 6. I can identify the parts of the ear that receive, vibrate, and move sound to our brain. Earth Systems, Structures, and Processes 2. E.1 Understand patterns of weather and factors that affect weather. 2. E.1.3 Compare weather patterns that occur over time and relate observable patterns to time of day and time of year. 5. I can tell the names of the seasons and weather patterns that are associated with each. 6. I can understand the differences with the changes that occur with our daily weather. Structures and Functions of Living Organisms Academic Vocabulary Sound wave climate Vibration stratus Frequency cirrus Tone nimbus Pitch cumulus Echo Sound Volume Noise Music Precipitation Thermometer Rain gauge Wind vane Water cycle Cumulus Cumuli-nimbus Temperature Fahrenheit Celsius Degrees 1

2 2 Standards Quarter 2 2. P.2 Understand properties of solids and liquids and the changes they undergo. 2. P.2.1 Give examples of matter that change from a solid to a liquid and from a liquid to a solid by heating and cooling. 2. P.2.2 Compare the amount (volume and weight) of water in a container before and after freezing. 2. P.2.3 Compare what happens to water left in an open container over time as to water left in a closed container. 1. I can identify and provide examples of common objects and materials that are solids and liquids. 2. I can identify the properties of solids and liquids. 3. I can identify solids and liquids whose properties change when they are heated or cooled. 4. I can identify solids that change to a liquid when heated and liquids that change to a solid form when they are cooled. 5. I can measure the volume and mass of liquid using containers of different sizes and capacity to show the unchanged value. 6. I can measure the mass and volume of a given amount of water, changed to ice, and again changed to water. 7. I can show how to turn water to turn ice by cooling and back into water by heating, eventually into water vapor by heating. 8. I can compare through observation and measurement water that Earth Systems, Structures, and Processes 2. E.1 Understand patterns of weather and factors that affect weather. 2. E.1.1 Summarize how energy from the sun serves as a source of light that warms the land, air and water. 2.E.1.2 Summarize weather conditions using qualitative and quantitative measures to describe: Temperature Wind direction Wind speed Precipitation 2. E.1.4 Recognize the tools that scientists use for observing, recording, and predicting weather changes from day to day and during the seasons. 1. I can discuss how solar energy from the sun warms (is absorbed) by land, water, and air. 2. I can use numbers to represent air temperature, wind speed, and precipitation. 3. I can use my cardinal directions to describe types of weather tools and how Academic Vocabulary Earth Systems, Structures, and Processes Precipitation Thermometer Rain gauge Wind vane Water cycle Cumulus Nimbus Cirrus Stratus Cumuli-nimbus Temperature Climate Fahrenheit Celsius Degrees Matter Evaporate Condensation Matter Mass Volume Dissolve
