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.
Patterns are regular sequences that can be found throughout nature.
Transverse waves are characterized by repeating patterns in their amplitude, frequency, and wavelength.
It is important to consider how changes in scale, proportion, or quantity affect a system’s structure or performance. Scale refers to the size of an object in relation to another object or its environment. Proportion is the ratio of one quantity to another. Quantity is a count of a set of objects or a measurement of a substance.
The amplitude of a wave is a measure of intensity (quantity). The frequency of a visible electromagnetic wave is the color and is inversely proportional to its wavelength. For electromagnetic waves, the wavelengths can be compared on a scale from 100m to 0.0001nm.
