Part of: [Missouri: Science](https://ai.page/roadmap/mo-sci.md)

Goal: Missouri academic standards: Science, Kindergarten

## 1. Engineering Design · Optimizing the Solution Process

- [Comparing Design Solutions](https://ai.page/c/comparing-design-solutions/index.md): Analyse data from tests of two objects designed to solve the same problem to compare the strengths and weaknesses of each design

## 2. Engineering Design · Developing Possible Solutions

- [Modelling with Sketches](https://ai.page/c/modelling-with-sketches/index.md): Develop a simple sketch, drawing, or physical model to illustrate how the shape of an object helps it function as needed to solve a given problem

## 3. Engineering Design · Defining and Delimiting Engineering Problems

- [Simple Design Problems](https://ai.page/c/simple-design-problems/index.md): Define a simple design problem reflecting a need or want that includes specified criteria for success and constraints on materials, time, or cost

## 4. Earth and Human Activity · Natural Hazards

- [Reducing Human Impact](https://ai.page/c/reducing-human-impact/index.md): Communicate solutions that will reduce the impact of humans on the land, water, air, and other living things in the local environment

## 5. Earth and Human Activity · Natural Resources

- [Plants and animals in their habitats](https://ai.page/c/plants-and-animals-in-their-habitats/index.md): Use a model to represent the relationship between the needs of different plants and animals and the places they live, connecting organism needs to habitat features

## 6. Earth's Systems · Biogeology

- [How Organisms Shape Habitats](https://ai.page/c/how-organisms-shape-habitats/index.md): Construct an argument supported by evidence for how plants and animals can change the environment to meet their needs

## 7. Earth's Systems · Weather and Climate

- [Local weather patterns](https://ai.page/c/local-weather-patterns/index.md): Use and share observations of local weather conditions to describe patterns over time, recording temperature, rainfall, and other conditions

## 8. Earth's Place in the Universe · Earth and the Solar System

- [Why seasons change](https://ai.page/c/why-seasons-change/index.md): Make observations at different times of year to relate the amount of daylight to the time of year, noticing longer days in summer and shorter days in winter

## 9. From Molecules to Organisms: Structure and Processes · Organization for Matter and Energy Flow in Organisms

- [What Living Things Need](https://ai.page/c/what-living-things-need/index.md): Understand what plants and animals (including humans) need to survive: water, food, air, and suitable conditions

## 10. Energy · Conservation of Energy and Energy Transfer

- [Building shade from the sun](https://ai.page/c/building-shade-from-the-sun/index.md): Use tools and materials to design and build a structure that will reduce the warming effect of sunlight on an area, such as a shade or shelter

## 11. Energy · Definitions of Energy

- [Sunlight warms things up](https://ai.page/c/sunlight-warms-things-up/index.md): Make observations to determine the effect of sunlight on Earth's surface, noticing that sunlight warms the ground, water, and objects

## 12. Motion and Stability: Forces and Interactions · Forces and Motion

- [Pushes & Pulls](https://ai.page/c/pushes-and-pulls/index.md): Understand that pushes and pulls are forces that can change the speed or direction of an object's motion, and compare the effects of different strengths and directions

## 13. Matter and Its Interactions · Structure and Properties of Matter

- [Grouping Materials](https://ai.page/c/grouping-materials/index.md): Compare and group everyday materials based on their simple physical properties
