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

Goal: Utah academic standards: Science, Grade 4

## 1. Observable Patterns In The Sky

- [Earth's rotation and day/night](https://ai.page/c/earth-s-rotation-and-day-night/index.md): Use the idea of the Earth's rotation to explain day and night and the apparent movement of the sun across the sky
- [Star Brightness & Distance](https://ai.page/c/star-brightness-and-distance/index.md): Support an argument that the apparent brightness of the sun and stars is due to their relative distances from Earth, understanding the sun is a relatively close star

## 2. Wave Patterns

- [Patterns & Codes for Information](https://ai.page/c/patterns-and-codes-for-information/index.md): Generate and compare multiple solutions that use patterns to transfer information, such as codes and signals
- [How We See Objects](https://ai.page/c/how-we-see-objects/index.md): Develop a model to describe that light reflecting from objects and entering the eye allows objects to be seen
- [Waves & How They Move](https://ai.page/c/waves-and-how-they-move/index.md): Develop a model of waves to describe patterns in terms of amplitude and wavelength, and understand that waves can cause objects to move

## 3. Energy Transfer

- [How energy travels around](https://ai.page/c/how-energy-travels-around/index.md): Observe and provide evidence that energy can be transferred from place to place by sound, light, heat, and electric currents
- [Building an energy-converting device](https://ai.page/c/building-an-energy-converting-device/index.md): Apply scientific ideas to design, test, and refine a device that converts energy from one form to another
- [Speed and energy](https://ai.page/c/speed-and-energy/index.md): Use evidence to construct an explanation relating the speed of an object to the energy of that object
- [What happens when things collide](https://ai.page/c/what-happens-when-things-collide/index.md): Ask questions and predict outcomes about the changes in energy that occur when objects collide

## 4. Organisms Functioning In Their Environment

- [How fossils form](https://ai.page/c/how-fossils-form-2/index.md): Identify evidence from patterns in rock formations and fossils in rock layers to support an explanation for changes in a landscape over time
- [Fossils as Evidence](https://ai.page/c/fossils-as-evidence/index.md): Analyse and interpret data from fossils to provide evidence of organisms and environments that existed long ago
- [Senses, Brain & Responses](https://ai.page/c/senses-brain-and-responses/index.md): Use a model to describe that animals receive information through their senses, process it in their brain, and respond in different ways
- [Structures for Survival](https://ai.page/c/structures-for-survival/index.md): Construct an argument that plants and animals have internal and external structures that function to support survival, growth, behaviour, and reproduction
