A student expectation is directly related to the knowledge and skills statement, is more specific about how students demonstrate their learning, and always begins with a verb. Student expectations are further broken down into their component parts, often referred to as “breakouts.”
Vertical alignment shows student expectations in the same subject area at different grade levels that are related to or build upon one another.
investigate and identify the transfer of energy by objects in motion, waves in water, and sound;
Patterns are regular sequences that can be found throughout nature.
A wave can be classified as transverse or longitudinal based on patterns in the existence and motion of the particles in the wave.
Cause-and-effect relationships are relationships between two or more variables or phenomena whereby one variable or event leads to a predictable response. Events have causes—sometimes simple, sometimes multi-faceted.
Energy is transferred (effect) when particles collide with each other (cause).
Matter and energy are conserved, changing forms but maintaining quantities. Energy flows within a system or between systems through transfers and transformations. Matter is cycled within systems through physical and chemical processes.
Energy flows through a wave as particles collide, transferring energy from one particle to the next.
