SCIENCE.6.7 — Vertical Alignment

Vertical alignment shows student expectations in the same subject area at different grade levels that are related to or build upon one another.

Previous grade

S.1.6.B

explain and predict changes in materials caused by heating and cooling; and

S.1.8.A

investigate and describe applications of heat in everyday life such as cooking food or using a clothes dryer; and

S.2.6.B

conduct a descriptive investigation to explain how physical properties can be changed through processes such as cutting, folding, sanding, melting, or freezing; and

S.3.6.C

predict, observe, and record changes in the state of matter caused by heating or cooling in a variety of substances such as ice becoming liquid water, condensation forming on the outside of a glass, or liquid water being heated to the point of becoming water vapor (gas); and

S.6.7

Force, motion, and energy. The student knows the nature of forces and their role in systems that experience stability or change. The student is expected to:

S.7.6.C

distinguish between physical and chemical changes in matter;

S.8.6.B

use the periodic table to identify the atoms involved in chemical reactions;

IPC.8.A

investigate how changes in properties are indicative of chemical reactions such as hydrochloric acid with a metal, oxidation of metal, combustion, and neutralizing an acid with a base;

CHEM.9.B

differentiate among acid-base reactions, precipitation reactions, and oxidation-reduction reactions;

CHEM.12.D

predict products in acid-base reactions that form water; and

CHEM.13.C

classify processes as exothermic or endothermic and represent energy changes that occur in chemical reactions using thermochemical equations or graphical analysis; and
