Description
Get students thinking like scientists as they master key Next Generation Science Standards* for third grade—identifying patterns in movement to predict future motion, using data to describe climates in different regions, and more! The set includes all 3 hands-on kits, each with 4 double-sided, 8 1/2" x 11" Investigation cards that help students make inquiries and design investigations, materials for conducting 4 different investigations, and 4 Connection cards for relating findings to the real world. Each kit also includes a comprehensive guide with lesson plans, safety tips and more! Each kit also available separately.
Develops skills in:
• Planning and conducting an investigation to provide evidence of the effects of balanced and unbalanced forces on the motion of an object
• Making observations and/or measurements of an object’s motion to provide evidence that a pattern can be used to predict future motion
• Asking questions to determine cause-and-effect relationships of magnetic interactions between two objects not in contact with each other
• Defining a simple design problem that can be solved by applying scientific ideas about magnets
• Representing data in tables and graphs to describe typical weather conditions expected during a particular season
• Obtaining and combining information to describe climates in different regions of the world
• Making a claim about the merit of a design solution that reduces the impact of a weather-related hazard
• Constructing an argument that some animals form groups that help members survive
• Analyzing and interpreting data from fossils to provide evidence of the organisms and the environments in which they lived long ago
• Constructing an argument with evidence that in a particular habitat some organisms can survive well, some survive less well and some cannot survive at all
• Making a claim about the merit of a solution to a problem caused when the environment changes and the types of plants and animals that live there may change
