Concept H: Chemical bonding is the
combining of different pure substances
(elements, compounds) to form new
substances with different properties
Not assessed at this grade level
Concept I: Mass is conserved during any
physical or chemical change
Scope and Sequence – Properties of and
Changes in Matter
a. Demonstrate and provide evidence that
mass is conserved during a physical
change.
R a. Students will demonstrate mass being
conserved during physical changes by
measuring an object before and after
breaking, cutting, or freezing. (1.1, 1.2, 1.3,
1.8, 2.1, 2.3, 4.1, 4.6)
a. Given examples of physical changes like
cutting, breaking, or freezing, students
should indicate no loss in mass.
Strand 1: Properties and Principles of Matter and Energy
2. Energy has a source, can be transferred, and can be transformed into various forms but is
conserved between and within systems
Major Objectives IS Suggested Activities Suggested Assessments
Concept A Forms of energy have a source,
a means of transfer (work and heat) and a
receiver
Scope and Sequence –- Forms of Energy:
Light
a. Identify sources of visible light (e.g., the
sun and other stars, flint, bulb, flames,
lightning).
T
R
a. Students will brainstorm/ research sources
of light. (1.4, 1.5, 1.6, 2.3, 2.7, 4.1)
a. Students will draw and or describe sources
of visible light.
b. Describe evidence (i.e., cannot bend
around walls) that visible light travels in a
straight line using the appropriate tools
(i.e., pinhole viewer, ray box and/or laser
pointer).
T
b. Teacher will use a laser pointer and
appropriate technology to demonstrate that
light moves in a straight line. (1.4, 1.5, 1.6,
2.3, 2.7, 4.1)
b. Draw and describe light moving in a straight
line.
c. Compare the reflection of visible light by
various surfaces (i.e. mirror, smooth and
R
C1-12
c. Students will use convex and concave
mirrors, rough and smooth surfaces, shiny
c. Students will diagram light being reflected
off different surfaces.
