3. Standard: Integration of knowledge and ideas: CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RST.6-8.7 Integrate quantitative or technical information expressed in words in a test with a version of that information expressed visually (e.g. in a flowchart, diagram, model, graph, or table) Big Ideas: 1. Conceptual understanding and procedural skills are woven together for deeper understanding (Odaim, n. d.); 2. Application of concepts and skills to new situations (Odamis, n.d.); 3. An awareness that the knowledge produced by science is used by some technologies to create products to serve human needs (Harlen, 2010)
4. Big Ideas: 1. Waves are caused by transference of energy from one place to another; 2. Waves can be constructive or destructive, in how the energy transferred in the medium comes in contact with other surfaces
5. Object 1: Classify the three mechanical waves of the directions of the particles of the medium
