RI GSEs in Science Grades 3-4 Students demonstrate understanding of earth materials by 1a describing, comparing, and sorting rocks, soils, and minerals by similar or different physical properties (e.g., size, shape, color, texture, smell, weight, temperature, hardness, composition). 1b recording and analyzing observations/data about physical properties (e.g., within a grouping, some characteristics are the same and other are different. 1c citing evidence (e.g., prior knowledge, data) to support why rocks, soils, or minerals are classified/not classified together.

RI GSEs in Science Assessment Targets ESS1 (K-4) INQ 1 Given certain earth materials (soils, rocks or minerals) use physical properties to sort, classify, and describe them.

RI GSEs in Science Grades 3-4 PS1 (3-4)–1 Students demonstrate an understanding of characteristic properties of matter by … 1a identifying, comparing, and sorting objects by similar or different physical properties (e.g., size, shape, color, texture, smell, weight, temperature, flexibility). 1b recording and analyzing observations/data about physical properties (e.g., within a grouping, some characteristics are the same and others are different. 1c citing evidence (e.g., prior knowledge, data) to support conclusions about why objects are grouped/not grouped together.

RI GSEs in Science Assessment Targets PS1 (K-4) INQ1 Collect and organize data about physical properties in order to classify objects or draw conclusions about objects and their characteristic properties (e.g., temperature, color, size, shape, weight, texture, flexibility)

Engaging Scenario Set Induction

Native People’s Use of Plants, Animals, and Rocks In RI Contact Period Contact Period early 1600’s early 1600’s Interaction of Europeans and Narragansett, Wampanoag, and Nipmuck Interaction of Europeans and Narragansett, Wampanoag, and Nipmuck Dramatic changes in land and species. Dramatic changes in land and species.

If you were a Wampanoag living during the Contact Period... How would you use natural resources to satisfy basic needs of food, shelter, clothing, and tools?

My Focus Question

Class Focus Question What minerals are found in Rhode Island? What minerals are found in Rhode Island? How are these minerals used? How are these minerals used?

Prediction Draw a mineral you think is found in Rhode Island, name it, and describe its properties. Draw a mineral you think is found in Rhode Island, name it, and describe its properties. I think the mineral can be used this way... I think the mineral can be used this way...

Claims and Evidence - I know this to be true. - Here is the evidence:

Conclusion - I learned I used to think (prediction) Now I think…. Now I think….

Next Steps - New Questions - I want to know... - I want to try this...
