2. Earth’s Systems · Understand the physical properties of Earth materials.
- Properties of materials: Compare and group different kinds of rocks based on their appearance and simple physical properties such as hardness, texture, and colour
- Rocks and soil: Recognise that soils are made from rocks and organic matter, and that different soils have different properties
- Earth Is Made of Rock: Understand that Earth is made of rock and other solid materials
3. Earth’s Place in the Universe · Recognize the features and patterns of the earth/moon/sun system as observed from Earth.
- Sun, Moon, and stars: Use observations of the sun, moon, and stars to describe predictable patterns such as the sun rising and setting, the moon changing shape, and stars appearing at night
4. Ecosystems- Interactions, Energy, and Dynamics · Understand the basic needs of a variety of plants and animals in different ecosystems.
- Plants and animals in their habitats: 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
- 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
