Compare and classify solids, liquids, and gasses. Recognize that an object can be seen only if either light falls on it or it emits light, and that color is a property of light. Classify materials that are or are not attracted to magnets and cite examples of useful magnetic tools in everyday living (e.g., can opener, compass, refrigerator door seal). Describe observable effects of forces, including buoyancy, gravity, and magnetism. (DOK 2), ,, ,, , 258 Unique properties of states of matter (Gases are easily compressed while solids and liquids are not the shape of a solid is independent of its container liquids and gases take the shape of their containers.), Physical changes (e.g., boiling liquids, freezing ice, tearing paper), Chemical changes (e.g., burning wood, making ice cream, cooking an egg)ģ c. Investigate and describe properties and changes of matter.
Investigate to conclude that when water changes to ice and then melts, the amount of water is the same as it was before freezing. Apply an understanding of properties of objects and materials, position and motion of objects, and properties of magnetism. Infer that science investigations generally work the same way in different places. Create line graphs, bar graphs, and pictographs to communicate data. Collect and display technological products (e.g., zipper, coat hook, ceiling fan pull 16 17Ģ chain, can opener, bridge, apple peeler, wheel barrow, nut cracker, etc.) to determine their function.

Use simple tools (e.g., rulers, thermometers, scales, hand lenses, microscopes, balances, clocks) to gather information. Compare, sort, and group objects according to two or more attributes.
Formulate questions about objects and organisms and predict outcomes in order to conduct a simple investigation. Develop abilities necessary to conduct scientific investigations. 1 Macmillan/McGraw Hill A Closer Look CORRELATION TO THE MISSISSIPPI CURRICULUM FRAMEWORKS INQUIRY SCIENCE GRADE 2 1.
