Sixth Grade Indicators
| 6-1.2 |
Differentiate
between observation and inference during the analysis
and interpretation of data. |
| 6-1.4 |
Use a
technological design process to plan and produce
a solution to a problem or a product (including
identifying a problem, designing a solution or
a product, implementing the design, and evaluating
the solution or the product). |
| 6-1.5 |
Use appropriate safety
procedures when conducting investigations |
| 6-4.2 |
Summarize the interrelationships
among the dynamic processes of the water cycle
(including precipitation, evaporation, transpiration,
condensation, surface-water flow, and groundwater
flow). |
Top
Seventh Grade Indicators
| 7-1.2 |
Generate questions
that can be answered through scientific investigation |
| 7-1.6 |
Critique a conclusion drawn from a scientific
investigation. |
| 7-1.7 |
Use appropriate safety procedures when
conducting investigations |
| 7-4.5 |
Summarize how the location
and movement of water on Earth’s surface through groundwater
zones and surface-water drainage basins, called watersheds,
are important to ecosystems and to human activities. |
Top
Eighth Grade Indicators
| 8-1.1 |
Design a controlled scientific investigation. |
| 8-1.3 |
Construct explanations and
conclusions from interpretations of data obtained during
a controlled scientific investigation. |
| 8-1.4 |
Generate questions
for further study on the basis of prior investigations |
| 8-1.7 |
Use appropriate safety procedures
when conducting investigations. |
| 8-3.6 |
Explain how the theory of
plate tectonics accounts for the motion of the lithospheric
plates, the geologic activities at the plate boundaries,
and the changes in landform areas over geologic time. |
| 8-3.7 |
Illustrate the creation
and changing of landforms that have occurred through
geologic processes (including volcanic eruptions and
mountain-building forces). |
| 8-3.9 |
Identify
and illustrate geologic features of South Carolina
and other regions of the world through the use of imagery
(including aerial photography and satellite imagery)
and topographic maps. |
