Energy, Force and Motion Forces and Motion • Recognize that a change in speed and direction is caused by a force and that a force is a push or a pull. • Recognize that the greater the force, the greater the change: the more massive the object, the smaller the change Energy and Work • Understand that energy has the ability to cause motion or to crate change, and that work is done when an object is moved a distance or when something undergoes a chemical change • Recognize different forms of energy and understand that when work is done, energy is often transformed between different forms of energy. Change of Motion • Understand that motion is the change in the position of an object which is caused by a force and that the heavier an object is, the more force is needed to make it move. • Recognize speed as a measure of motion an deb introduced to friction as a force which causes an object to slow down. Kinetic and Potential Energy • Define kinetic and potential energy, recognize examples of each, and explain how potential energy can be transformed into genetic energy and vice versa Ways and Object will Move • Understand the different ways that objects can move; side to side, back and forth, zigzag, straight line, round and round, etc. Transferring Energy • Explore ways in which energy can be transformed from one form to another Heat and Movement • Understand that heat is a form of energy and that energy causes motion. • Understand that heat moves from a warmer substance to a cooler substance and recognize that heat energy moves to and from some substances better than others

Science, engineering, and technology permeate nearly every facet of modern life and hold the key to solving many of humanity's most pressing current and future challenges. The United States' position in the global economy is declining, in part because U.S. workers lack fundamental knowledge in these fields. To address the critical issues of U.S. competitiveness and to better prepare the workforce, A Framework for K-12 Science Education proposes a new approach to K-12 science education that will capture students' interest and provide them with the necessary foundational knowledge in the field. A Framework for K-12 Science Education outlines a broad set of expectations for students in science and engineering in grades K-12. These expectations will inform the development of new standards for K-12 science education and, subsequently, revisions to curriculum, instruction, assessment, and professional development for educators. This book identifies three dimensions that convey the core ideas and practices around which science and engineering education in these grades should be built. These three dimensions are: crosscutting concepts that unify the study of science through their common application across science and engineering; scientific and engineering practices; and disciplinary core ideas in the physical sciences, life sciences, and earth and space sciences and for engineering, technology, and the applications of science. The overarching goal is for all high school graduates to have sufficient knowledge of science and engineering to engage in public discussions on science-related issues, be careful consumers of scientific and technical information, and enter the careers of their choice. A Framework for K-12 Science Education is the first step in a process that can inform state-level decisions and achieve a research-grounded basis for improving science instruction and learning across the country. The book will guide standards developers, teachers, curriculum designers, assessment developers, state and district science administrators, and educators who teach science in informal environments.
