SCI-01.PS4.02

Physical Science Logo1st Grade (SCI) Science Standards
[PS4] Waves and Their Applications in Technologies for Information Transfer

SCI-01.PS4.02 Construct an evidence-based account, through observation, that objects can be seen only when illuminated.

Clarification Statement: Examples of observations could include those made in a completely dark room, a pinhole box, and a video of a cave explorer with a flashlight. Illumination could be from an external light source or by an object giving off its own light.
Disciplinary Core Ideas
PS4.B: Electromagnetic Radiation -Objects can be seen if light is available to illuminate them or if they give off their own light.

SCI-01.PS4.03

Physical Science Logo1st Grade (SCI) Science Standards
[PS4] Waves and Their Applications in Technologies for Information Transfer

SCI-01.PS4.03 Plan and conduct an investigation to determine the effect of placing objects made with different materials in the path of a beam of light.

Clarification Statement: Examples of materials could include those that are transparent (such as clear plastic), translucent (such as wax paper), Opaque (such as cardboard), and reflective (such as a mirror)
Disciplinary Core Ideas
PS4.B: Electromagnetic Radiation -Some materials allow light to pass through them, others allow only some light through and others block all the light and create a dark shadow on any surface beyond them, where the light cannot reach. Mirrors can be used to redirect a light beam. (Boundary: The idea that light travels from place to place is developed through experiences with light sources, mirrors, and shadows, but no attempt is made to discuss the speed of light.)

Student Learning Targets:

Reasoning Targets

  • I can

Skills (Performance) Targets

  • I can demonstrate how light passes through materials differently.

SCI-01.PS4.04

Physical Science Logo1st Grade (SCI) Science Standards
[PS4] Waves and Their Applications in Technologies for Information Transfer

SCI-01.PS4.04 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.
Disciplinary Core Ideas
PS4.C: Information Technologies and Instrumentation -People also use a variety of devices to communicate (send and receive information) over long distances.
