Part of: [North Carolina: Science](https://ai.page/roadmap/nc-sci.md)

Goal: North Carolina academic standards: Science, Grade 2

## 1. Earth’s Systems · Understand patterns of weather and factors that affect weather.

- [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
- [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

## 2. Heredity- Inheritance and Variation of Traits · Understand that organisms differ from or are similar to their parents and other offspring based on characteristics of the organism.

- [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

## 3. From Molecules to Organisms- Structures and Processes · Understand animal 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

## 4. Waves and Their Applications in Technologies for Information Transfer · Understand the relationship between sound and vibrating objects.

- [Vibrations & Sound](https://ai.page/c/vibrations-and-sound/index.md): Understand that vibrating materials can make sound, and that sound can make materials vibrate
- [Volume & Vibrations](https://ai.page/c/volume-and-vibrations/index.md): Find patterns between the volume of a sound and the strength of the vibrations that produced it
- [Pitch of Sounds](https://ai.page/c/pitch-of-sounds/index.md): Find patterns between the pitch of a sound and features of the object that produced it

## 5. Matter and its Interactions · Understand properties of solids and liquids and the changes they undergo.

- [States of Matter Vocabulary](https://ai.page/c/states-of-matter-vocabulary/index.md): Name and distinguish the three states of matter — solid, liquid, and gas — using properties vocabulary: hard, rigid, runny, flows, keeps its shape, fills its container; use 'change of state' to describe what happens when materials are heated or cooled
- [Heating & Cooling Changes](https://ai.page/c/heating-and-cooling-changes/index.md): Observe and describe that some materials change state when heated or cooled, and measure the temperature at which changes occur in degrees Celsius
