NGSS Dimensions
Performance expectation MS-PS1-3 was developed using the following elements from the NRC document A Framework for K-12 Science Education:
- Obtaining, Evaluating, and Communicating Information
- Gather and make sense of information to describe that synthetic materials come from natural resources and impact society.
- PS1.A: Structure and Properties of Matter
- Each substance has characteristic properties that can be used to identify it.
- Structure and Function
- Structures can be designed to serve particular functions by taking into account properties of different materials and how materials can be shaped and used.
