I have 2 topics of study left for the rest of the school year: Changes in Property(matter) and Sound. I plan on working with the Media Specialist to do a project on mammals. I thought that this would be a good topic for my students to use for their nonfiction books.
Competency Goal 3: The learner will observe and conduct investigations to build an understanding of changes in properties. |

Objectives3.01 Identify three states of matter:
3.02 Observe changes in state due to heating and cooling of common materials. 3.03 Explain how heat is produced and can move from one material or object to another. 3.04 Show that solids, liquids and gases can be characterized by their properties. 3.05 Investigate and observe how mixtures can be made by combining solids, liquids or gases and how they can be separated again. 3.06 Observe that a new material is made by combining two or more materials with properties different from the original material. |
Competency Goal 4: The learner will conduct investigations and use appropriate technology to build an understanding of the concepts of sound. |
Objectives4.01 Demonstrate how sound is produced by vibrating objects and vibrating columns of air.
4.02 Show how the frequency can be changed by altering the rate of the vibration 4.03 Show how the frequency can be changed by altering the size and shape of a variety of instruments. 4.04 Show how the human ear detects sound by having a membrane that vibrates when sound reaches it. 4.05 Observe and describe how sounds are made by using a variety of instruments and other “sound makers” including the human vocal cords. |
