In this lesson, students focus on figuring out the phenomena that is the pitch of a sound and the various factors that determine pitch. This page is a high-level extract of this lesson. 

In this unit, students investigate the relationship between gravity, motion, and energy. Students begin by questioning how the amount of potential energy stored in an energy system changes when objects are different heights above the ground. 

In this unit, students explore phenomena that change Earth’s surface over time, analyzing how weathering, erosion, and convection in the mantle are three phenomena that help to cycle Earth materials. 

In this unit, students explore the structure and function of the human body by developing models of the interactions within and between systems.

In this unit, students explore the science phenomena gravity and its role in the universe. In this lesson they investigate how gravity within the Earth-sun-moon system causes different observable patterns. This page showcases key elements in this lesson. 

In this unit, students explore the vastness and mysteriousness of the universe, exploring how the Earth-sun-moon system fits into solar system phenomena and the Milky Way Galaxy. In this lesson they evaluate phenomena related to gravity’s role in forming the solar system and how mass and gravity determine weight on other planets. This page showcases key elements in this lesson.

In this unit, students analyze the phenomena that have shaped Earth’s surface, analyzing how gravitational energy moves glaciers, which have sculpted the land over time. This page showcases elements of the first lesson which focuses on glacier motion.

In this unit, students focus on the phenomena of Earth’s ice as they model how glaciers shape Earth’s surface. In this lesson, they investigate how scientists use ice cores to reconstruct Earth’s past climates and environments. This page is a high-level extract of this lesson.
