1. Life Science · Obtain, evaluate, and communicate information about the effects of pollution (air, land, and water) and humans on the environment.

1. Human impact on environments: Use vocabulary for human impact on the environment — pollution, habitat destruction, deforestation, biodiversity, conservation, renewable energy, non-renewable energy, fossil fuel, carbon footprint, sustainability, endangered, extinct — and apply these when discussing environmental issues and human choices

2. Life Science · Obtain, evaluate, and communicate information about the similarities and differences between plants, animals, and habitats found within geographic regions (Blue Ridge Mountains, Piedmon

1. Habitat Vocabulary: Name and use vocabulary for where living things are found — habitat, environment, microhabitat, conditions, woodland, ocean, desert, rainforest, pond — and use terms to describe what animals need to survive: food, water, shelter, space, and suitable conditions
2. Habitats & Basic Needs: Identify that most living things live in habitats to which they are suited and describe how habitats provide for basic needs and how organisms depend on each other

3. Physical Science · Obtain, evaluate, and communicate information about the ways heat energy is transferred and measured.

1. Building an energy-converting device: Apply scientific ideas to design, test, and refine a device that converts energy from one form to another

4. Earth and Space Science · Obtain, evaluate, and communicate information on how fossils provide evidence of past organisms.

1. Fossils as Evidence: Analyse and interpret data from fossils to provide evidence of organisms and environments that existed long ago

5. Earth and Space Science · Obtain, evaluate, and communicate information about the physical attributes of rocks and soils.

1. Erosion and weathering: Make observations and measurements to provide evidence of the effects of weathering or the rate of erosion by water, ice, wind, or vegetation
2. Properties of materials: Compare and group different kinds of rocks based on their appearance and simple physical properties such as hardness, texture, and colour
3. Rocks and soil: Recognise that soils are made from rocks and organic matter, and that different soils have different properties
