Alignment to Standards for KY
Grade | Number | Standard |
---|---|---|
4 | SC-04-2.3.2 | describe and explain consequences of changes to the surface of the Earth, including some common fast changes (e.g., landslides, volcanic eruptions, earthquakes), and some common slow changes (e.g., erosion, weathering). |
4 | SC-04-2.3.2a | The surface of the Earth changes. Some changes are due to slow processes such as erosion or weathering. Some changes are due to rapid processes such as landslides, volcanic eruptions and earthquakes. |
4 | SC-4-EU-S-4 | slow changes to earthês surface (e.g., erosion and weathering) |
4 | SC-4-EU-S-5 | describe and compare contributing factors and consequences of fast changes to earthês surface (e.g., landslides, earthquakes, floods) |
4 | SC-4-EU-U-3 | the surface of the Earth is always changing through both fast and slow processes. These changes may be steady, repetitive or irregular. Careful analysis of data from past events allows the prediction of expected consequences |
4 | SS-4-G-S-2c | explain the influence of the physical characteristics of regions (e.g., climates, landforms, bodies of water) on decisions that were made about where to locate things (e.g., factories stores, bridges) |
Primary | SC-P-BC-U-3 | some changes are so slow or so fast that they are hard to see. |
Primary | SS-EP-4.1.1 | Students will use geographic tools (e.g., maps, globes, mental maps, charts, graphs) to locate and describe familiar places at home, school and the community. |
Primary | SS-EP-4.1.2 | use geographic tools to identify major landforms (e.g., continents, mountain ranges), bodies of water (e.g., oceans, major rivers) and natural resources on Earthês surface and use relative location. |
Primary | SS-P,4&5-G-U-1 | use of geographic tools (e.g., maps, globes, charts, graphs) and mental maps help interpret information, understand and analyze patterns, spatial data and geographic issues. |
Primary | SS-P-G-S-1c | identify major landforms (e.g., continents, mountain ranges) and major bodies of water (e.g., oceans, rivers) |
Primary | SS-P-G-S-2 | Students will investigate the Earthês surface using print and non-print sources (e.g., books, magazines, films, Internet, geographic tools): |
Primary | SS-P-G-S-2a | locate and describe places (e.g., local environments, different habitats) using their physical characteristics (e.g., landforms, bodies of water) |
