Standards
NGSS Middle School (MS) Science Standards
Earth and Space Science
- 5-PS2-1 Support an argument that the gravitational force exerted by Earth on objects is directed down.
- MS-PS2-1 Apply Newton’s Third Law to design a solution to a problem involving the motion of two colliding objects
- MS-ETS1-2. Evaluate competing design solutions using a systematic process to determine how well they meet the criteria and constraints of the problem.
- 5-ESS2-1-Develop a model using an example to describe ways the geosphere, biosphere, hydrosphere, and/or atmosphere interact.
- 5-ESS2-2-Describe and graph the amounts and percentages of water and fresh water in various reservoirs to provide evidence about the distribution of water on Earth.
