I. COURSE DESCIPTION
Learners can investigate changes in some observable properties of materials when mixed with other materials or when force is applied on them. They can identify materials that do not decay and use this knowledge to help minimize waste at home, school, and in the community.
Learners can describe the functions of the different internal parts of the body in order to practice ways to maintain good health. They can classify plants and animals according to where they live and observe interactions among living things and their environment. They can infer that plants and animals have traits that help them survive in their environment. Learners can investigate the effects of push or pull on the size, shape, and movement of an object.
Learners can investigate which type of soil is best for certain plants and infer the importance of water in daily activities. They learned about what makes up weather and apply their knowledge of weather conditions in making decisions for the day. They can infer the importance of the Sun to life on Earth.
II. OBJECTIVES
Describe the motion of an object by tracing and measuring its change in position (distance travelled) over a period of time.
