5.E.1.3  -  I can analyze global weather patterns and their influence on local weather.

5.L.1.1  -  I can analyze how simple and complex cells sustain life.

Third Nine Weeks

5.L.2.3  -  I can explain how all the organisms in an ecosystem are interconnected.

5.L.3.1  -  I can explain why organisms differ from or are similar to their parents.

5.L.3.2  -  I can classify similar traits of parents and offspring as inherited or not inherited.

Fourth Nine Weeks

5.P.1.1 I can explain how factors such as gravity, friction, and change in mass affect the motion of objects.

5.P.1.2 I can infer the motion of objects in terms of how far they travel in a certain amount of time and the direction in which they travel.

5.P.1.3 I can illustrate the motion of an object using a graph to show a change in position over a period of time.
