Grade 7
MS-LS2-1
Analyze and interpret data to provide evidence for the effects of resource availability on organisms and populations of organisms in an ecosystem.
October 1, 2018MS-PS1-4
Develop a model that predicts and describes changes in particle motion, temperature, and state of a pure substance when thermal energy is added or removed.
October 1, 2018MS-LS2-2
Construct an explanation that predicts patterns of interactions among organisms across multiple ecosystems.
October 1, 2018MS-PS1-5
Develop and use a model to describe how the total number of atoms does not change in a chemical reaction and thus mass is conserved.
October 1, 2018MS-LS2-3
Develop a model to describe the cycling of matter and flow of energy among living and nonliving parts of an ecosystem.
October 1, 2018MS-PS1-6
Undertake a design project to construct, test, and modify a device that either releases or absorbs thermal energy by chemical processes.
October 1, 2018MS-LS2-4
Construct an argument supported by empirical evidence that changes to physical or biological components of an ecosystem affect populations.
October 1, 2018MS-PS2-1
Apply Newton?s Third Law to design a solution to a problem involving the motion of two colliding objects.
October 1, 2018MS-LS2-5
Evaluate competing design solutions for maintaining biodiversity and ecosystem services.
October 1, 2018MS-PS2-2
Plan an investigation to provide evidence that the change in an object?s motion depends on the sum of the forces on the object and the mass of the object.
October 1, 2018MS-LS3-1
Develop and use a model to describe why structural changes to genes (mutations) located on chromosomes may affect proteins and may result in harmful, beneficial, or neutral effects to the structure and function of the organism.
October 1, 2018MS-PS2-3
Ask questions about data to determine the factors that affect the strength of electric and magnetic forces.
