Develop students’ understanding
of the characteristics of earth materials, objects in
the sky, and changes in the sky
- Weather changes from day to day and over the seasons.
- Weather can be described by measurable quantities,
such as temperature, wind direction and speed, and precipitation.
- Objects in the sky have a pattern of movement. The
Moon moves across the sky on a daily basis much like the Sun. The
movements can be observed and described.
- The Sun provides the light and heat necessary
to maintain the temperature of the Earth.
- Earth materials include air (gases of the atmosphere). Air
has specific properties, which can be measured using tools.
