Engaging in argument from evidence

In this lesson students focus on phenomena created by levers, exploring how the structure of the lever determines how much force it can produce to do work. This page is a high-level extract showcasing various parts of the lesson. 

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 use what they know about the relationship between energy and matter to investigate how energy powers the cycling of Earth materials. In this lesson, they analyze the phenomena of processes that form fossil fuels, which determine how these natural resources are distributed around the planet. This page highlights all the parts of this lesson. 

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.

In this unit, students explore the vastness and mysteriousness of the universe. For this lesson, students evaluate gravity’s role in forming the solar system and how mass and gravity determine weight on other planets.

In this unit, students apply what they have previously learned about forces, motion, and matter to the solar system, focusing on the phenomena of gravity’s role in the universe. In this lesson, students engineer a solution to collisions between moving objects in space. This page is a high-level extract of this lesson.

In this unit, students use what they know about the relationship between energy and matter to investigate how energy powers the cycling of Earth materials. In this lesson, they analyze the phenomena of processes that form fossil fuels, which determine how these natural resources are distributed around the planet. This page highlights all the parts of this lesson. 

In this unit, students explore phenomena of natural processes that cause Earth’s surface to change over time, analyzing how energy causes Earth’s matter to transform and cycle from one form to another. In this lesson, students investigate how Earth materials are continually being reshaped and reformed by multiple processes that are powered by energy from Earth’s hot interior and the sun. This page is a high-level extract of this lesson.

In this unit, students use what they know about the relationship between energy and matter to investigate phenomena of how energy powers the cycling of Earth materials. They begin with this lesson on modeling the Earth processes that form different kinds of rock. This page provides an overview of this lesson.
