Use evidence and observations to explain that many animals use their body parts and senses in different ways to see, hear, grasp objects, protect themselves, move from place to place, and seek, find, and take in food, water, and air.

Use evidence to explain that living things have physical traits inherited from parents and that variations of these traits exist in groups of similar organisms.
Analyze the push or the pull that occurs when objects collide or are connected.
Recognize the effect of multiple pushes and pulls on an object's movement or non-movement.
Demonstrate how a stronger push or pull makes things go faster and how faster speeds during a collision can cause a bigger change in the shape of the colliding objects.
Make observations and conduct experiments to provide evidence that friction produces heat and reduces or increases the motion of an object.
Analyze and interpret weather data (precipitation, wind, temperature, cloud cover) to describe weather patterns that occur over time (hourly, daily) using simple graphs, pictorial weather symbols, and tools (thermometer, rain gauge).
