Title: 1-PS4 Waves and their Applications in Technologies for Information Transfer
Performance Expectation: Use tools and materials to design and build a device that uses light or sound to solve the problem of communicating over a distance.* [Clarification Statement: Examples of devices could include a light source to send signals, paper cup and string “telephones,” and a pattern of drum beats.] [Assessment Boundary: Assessment does not include technological details for how communication devices work.]
Disciplinary Core Idea(s):
PS4.C: Information Technologies and Instrumentation People also use a variety of devices to communicate (send and receive information) over long distances.
Science & Engineering Practices: Constructing Explanations and Designing Solutions Use tools and materials provided to design a device that solves a specific problem.
Crosscutting Concepts: Connections to Engineering, Technology, and Applications of Science: Influence of Engineering, Technology, and Science, on Society and the Natural World People depend on various technologies in their lives; human life would be very different without technology.
California Environmental Principles and Concepts:
N/A
California Common Core State Standards Connections:
ELA/Literacy W.1.7: Participate in shared research and writing projects (e.g., explore a number of “how-to” books on a given topic and use them to write a sequence of instructions). Mathematics MP.5: Use appropriate tools strategically. 1.MD.1-2: Measure lengths indirectly and by iterating length units.
DCI Connections:
Connections to other DCIs in first grade: N/A Articulation across grade-levels: K.ETS1.A; 2.ETS1.B ; 4.PS4.C; 4.ETS1.A
