Properties of Matter
5.PS1.A.2: Measure and graph quantities to provide evidence that regardless of the type of change that occurs when heating, cooling, or mixing substances, the total weight of matter is conserved.
5.PS1.B.2: Conduct an investigation to determine whether the combining of two or more substances results in new substances.
5.PS2.B.1: Support an argument that the gravitational force exerted by Earth on objects is directed toward the planet's center.
5.PS3.D.1: Use models to describe that energy stored in food (used for body repair, growth, motion, and to maintain body warmth) was once energy from the sun.
5.PS4.A.1: Develop a model to describe that objects can be seen only when light is reflected off them or when they produce their own light.

5.LS1.C.1: Support an argument that plants get the materials (i.e., carbon dioxide, water, sunlight) they need for growth chiefly from air and water.
