In the app: https://ai.page/roadmap/co-sci-grade-3 Part of: [Colorado: Science](https://ai.page/roadmap/co-sci.md) Goal: Colorado academic standards: Science, Grade 3 ## 1. Earth and Space Science · A variety of weather hazards result from natural process; humans cannot eliminate weather-related hazards but can reduce their impacts. - [Designing for Weather Hazards](https://ai.page/c/designing-for-weather-hazards/index.md): Make a claim about the merit of a design solution that reduces the impacts of a weather-related hazard such as flooding, wind damage, or extreme temperatures ## 2. Earth and Space Science · Climate describes patterns of typical weather conditions over different scales and variations; historical weather patterns can be analyzed. - [Seasonal changes (age 8+)](https://ai.page/c/seasonal-changes-age-8/index.md): Represent data in tables and graphical displays to describe typical weather conditions expected during a particular season - [Weather vs climate](https://ai.page/c/weather-vs-climate/index.md): Obtain and combine information to describe climates in different regions of the world, distinguishing between weather and climate ## 3. Life Science · Sometimes differences in characteristics between individuals of the same species provide advantages in survival and reproduction. - [Variation & Survival Advantage](https://ai.page/c/variation-and-survival-advantage/index.md): Use evidence to explain how variations in characteristics among individuals of the same species may provide advantages in surviving, finding mates, and reproducing ## 4. Life Science · Some living organisms resemble organisms that once lived on Earth . - [Fossils as Evidence](https://ai.page/c/fossils-as-evidence/index.md): Analyse and interpret data from fossils to provide evidence of organisms and environments that existed long ago ## 5. Life Science · Different organisms vary in how they look and function because they have different inherited information; the environment also affects the traits that an organism develops. - [Inherited characteristics](https://ai.page/c/inherited-characteristics/index.md): Analyse and interpret data to provide evidence that plants and animals have traits inherited from parents and that variation of these traits exists in a group of similar organisms - [Traits: inherited and environmental](https://ai.page/c/traits-inherited-and-environmental/index.md): Use evidence to support the explanation that traits can be influenced by the environment as well as inheritance ## 6. Life Science · Being part of a group helps animals obtain food, defend themselves and cope with changes. - [Animal Groups & Survival](https://ai.page/c/animal-groups-and-survival/index.md): Construct an argument that some animals form groups that help members survive, such as herds, packs, or colonies ## 7. Life Science · Organisms have unique and diverse life cycles. - [Life Cycles of Organisms](https://ai.page/c/life-cycles-of-organisms/index.md): Develop models to describe that organisms have unique and diverse life cycles but all share the common stages of birth, growth, reproduction, and death ## 8. Physical Science · Objects in contact exert forces on each other; electric and magnetic forces between a pair of objects do not require contact. - [Contact & Non-Contact Forces](https://ai.page/c/contact-and-non-contact-forces/index.md): Notice that some forces need contact between two objects (contact forces) while magnetic forces can act at a distance (non-contact forces) ## 9. Physical Science · Patterns of motion can be used to predict future motion. - [Predicting Motion Patterns](https://ai.page/c/predicting-motion-patterns/index.md): Make observations and measurements of an object's motion to provide evidence that a pattern can be used to predict future motion ## Health: 0 of 100 Of its 11 own concepts: 0 have an explanation, 0 have practice, 0 have a measurement question, 0 have a checked version. Findings (each is a task for anyone's AI): - Designing for Weather Hazards has no explanation yet - Seasonal changes (age 8+) has no explanation yet - Weather vs climate has no explanation yet - Variation & Survival Advantage comes before Inherited characteristics, which it needs - Variation & Survival Advantage has no explanation yet - Fossils as Evidence has no explanation yet - Inherited characteristics has no explanation yet - Traits: inherited and environmental has no explanation yet - Animal Groups & Survival has no explanation yet - Life Cycles of Organisms has no explanation yet - Contact & Non-Contact Forces has no explanation yet - Predicting Motion Patterns has no explanation yet Credit: The structure of Colorado academic standards: Science (https://coctestandards.cccs.edu/); concepts from the Marble Skill Taxonomy (v1), © Generative Spark, Inc.
