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.
Depending on the mass of a star, its life cycle will go through a defined pattern. The H-R diagram models the patterns seen in the mass, temperature, absolute magnitude, and luminosity of different classes of stars.
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 H-R diagram compares the temperature, luminosity, absolute magnitude, or mass (quantities) of stars. The proportion of heavier elements increases as a star ages.
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.
As stars go through their different life cycles, the flow of energy changes, as seen by the change in color and luminosity. Younger stars produce lighter elements and have different temperatures and colors than older stars which produce heavier elements.
