Grade 3 NGSS Connections

LIFE SCIENCE

  • 3-LS2-1: Construct an argument that some animals form groups that help members survive.
    (marine example: fish schools, dolphin pods, penguin colonies)
  • 3-LS3-1: Analyze and interpret data to provide evidence that plants and animals have traits inherited from parents.
    (marine example: whale calves resemble parents, coral reproduction)
  • 3-LS3-2: Use evidence to support the explanation that traits can be influenced by the environment.
    (marine example: shell thickness, coloration based on environment)
  • 3-LS4-3: Construct an argument with evidence that in a particular habitat some organisms can survive well, some less well, and some not at all.
    (marine example: tide pool organisms vs. open ocean)
  • 3-LS4-4: Make a claim about the merit of a solution to a problem caused when the environment changes.
    (marine example: designing marine protected areas)

Grade 4 NGSS Connections

LIFE SCIENCE

  • 4-LS1-1: Construct an argument that animals’ internal and external structures support survival, growth, behavior, and reproduction.
    (marine example: gills, fins, blubber, shells, coral polyps)
  • 4-LS1-2: Use a model to describe how animals receive information from their environment.
    (marine example: echolocation in dolphins, lateral line in fish)

EARTH SCIENCE (OCEAN CONNECTIONS)

  • 4-ESS2-2: Analyze and interpret data from maps to describe patterns of Earth’s features.
    (marine example: ocean floor maps, trenches, seamounts, reefs)
  • 4-ESS3-2: Generate and compare solutions to reduce the impacts of natural Earth processes.
    (marine example: coastal erosion, hurricanes, sea level rise)

Grade 5 NGSS Connections

LIFE SCIENCE

  • 5-LS1-1: Support an argument that plants get the materials they need for growth chiefly from air and water.
    (marine example: seaweeds, seagrasses, phytoplankton)
  • 5-LS2-1: Develop a model to describe the movement of matter among plants, animals, decomposers, and the environment.
    (marine example: ocean food webs, decomposers like crabs and bacteria)

EARTH SCIENCE

  • 5-ESS2-1: Develop a model to describe the cycling of Earth’s materials and the flow of energy.
    (marine example: water cycle, ocean currents, role of oceans in climate)
  • 5-ESS3-1: Obtain and combine information about ways communities protect Earth’s resources and environment.
    (marine example: marine conservation, overfishing, pollution solutions)
