6 | Quarter 1 | Approx. 30 lessons or 15 hours | Energy | Physical Sciences | 1.PS3.A Identify the source of energy that causes an increase in the temperature of an object (e.g., Sun, stove, flame, light bulb). 1.PS4.A Planand conductinvestigationsto provide evidence that vibrating materials can make sound and that sound can make materials vibrate. [Clarification Statement: Examples of vibrating materials that make sound could include tuning forks and plucking a stretched string. Examples of how sound can make matter vibrate could include holding a piece of paper near a speaker making sound and holding an object near a vibrating tuning fork.] 1.PS4.C Use tools and materialsto design and build a device that uses light or sound to solve the problem of communicating over a distance. [Clarification Statement: Examples of devices could include a light source to send signals, paper cup and string “telephones,” and a pattern of drum beats.] | sound vibrate pitch volume light shadow | ||||
