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

Goal: North Carolina academic standards: Science, Kindergarten

## 1. Earth’s Systems · Understand change and observable patterns of weather that occur from day to day and throughout the year.

- [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

## 2. Heredity- Inheritance and Variation of Traits · Understand characteristics of organisms that make them alike and different.

- [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 the characteristics of living organisms and nonliving things.

- [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
- [Living Things Vocabulary](https://ai.page/c/living-things-vocabulary/index.md): Name and use vocabulary for what makes something living — alive, dead, never been alive, movement, nutrition, growth, reproduction, sensitivity, excretion — and apply these terms when classifying objects and explaining why plants and animals count as living things

## 4. Motion and Stability- Forces and Interactions · Understand the positions and motions of objects and organisms observed in the environment.

- [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

## 5. Matter and its Interactions · Understand how objects are described based on their physical properties and how they are used.

- [Objects vs Materials](https://ai.page/c/objects-vs-materials/index.md): Distinguish between an object and the material from which it is made, understanding that objects can be made from different materials
- [Grouping Materials](https://ai.page/c/grouping-materials/index.md): Compare and group everyday materials based on their simple physical properties
