Core Idea - Matter and Its Interactions

[2.PS.1.3] - Analyze a variety of evidence to conclude that when a chunk of material is cut or broken into pieces, each piece is still the same material and, however small each piece is, has weight. Show that the material properties of a small set of pieces do not change when the pieces are used to build larger objects. Clarification Statements: Materials should be pure substances or microscopic mixtures that appear contiguous at observable scales; Examples of pieces could include blocks, building bricks, and other assorted small objects.

Predecessor Standards:

  • K.MD.A.1
    Describe measurable attributes of objects, such as length or weight. Describe several measurable attributes of a single object.

Successor Standards:

  • SL.5.2
    Summarize a written text read aloud or information presented in diverse media and formats, including visually, quantitatively, and orally.
  • 5.PS.1.1
    Use a particle model of matter to explain common phenomena involving gases, and phase changes between gas and liquid and between liquid and solid. Clarification Statement: Examples of common phenomena the model should be able to describe include adding air to expand a balloon, compressing air in a syringe, and evaporating water from a salt water solution. State Assessment Boundary: Atomic-scale mechanisms of evaporation and condensation or defining unseen particles are not expected in state assessment.
  • 5.ETS.3.2
    Use sketches or drawings to show how each part of a product or device relates to other parts in the product or device.*

Same Level Standards:

  • W.2.2
    Write informative/explanatory texts that introduce a topic, use facts and definitions to develop points, and provide a concluding statement or section.
