![]() team-based development to ensure materials are appropriate across multiple educational settings.This rigorous, structured process includes: This material was developed and reviewed through the InTeGrate curricular materials development process. Structure and Properties of Matter: The structure and interactions of matter at the bulk scale are determined by electrical forces within and between atoms. Heavier elements are produced when certain massive stars achieve a supernova stage and explode. The Universe and Its Stars: Other than the hydrogen and helium formed at the time of the Big Bang, nuclear fusion within stars produces all atomic nuclei lighter than and including iron, and the process releases electromagnetic energy. The energy that flows and matter that cycles produce chemical and physical changes in Earth’s materials and living organisms. This energy is derived from the sun and Earth’s hot interior. HS-C5.4: Disciplinary Core IdeasĮarth’s Materials and Systems: All Earth processes are the result of energy flowing and matter cycling within and among the planet’s systems. HS-C5.2:Įnergy and Matter: Energy drives the cycling of matter within and between systems. MS-C3.3:Įnergy and Matter: Changes of energy and matter in a system can be described in terms of energy and matter flows into, out of, and within that system. Scale, Proportion and Quantity: Proportional relationships (e.g., speed as the ratio of distance traveled to time taken) among different types of quantities provide information about the magnitude of properties and processes. MS-P5.4:Ĭonstructing Explanations and Designing Solutions: Construct an explanation using models or representations. Using Mathematics and Computational Thinking: Apply mathematical concepts and/or processes (e.g., ratio, rate, percent, basic operations, simple algebra) to scientific and engineering questions and problems. Students gain an understanding of basic cycle terminology and use it to model both carbon reservoir sizes quantitatively and carbon cycling withing and between the different reservoirs. ![]() ![]() OverviewA multistep unit that engages students in many aspects of the carbon cycle from the formation of carbon in the Universe to common chemical reactions involving carbon. Reviewed for their alignment with the Next Generation Science Standards as detailed below. ![]()
