P.FM.E.2
Gravity- Earth pulls down on all objects with a force called
gravity. With very few exceptions, objects fall to the ground no
matter where the object is on the Earth.

P.FM.03.22 Identify the force that pulls objects towards the
Earth.
P.FM.E.3
Force- A force is either a push or a pull. The motion of objects
can be changed by forces. The size of the change is related to the
size of the force. The change is also related to the weight (mass)
of the object on which the force is being exerted. When an object
does not move in response to a force, it is because another force is
being applied by the environment.

P.FM.03.35 Describe how a push or a pull is a force.
P.FM.03.36 Relate a change in motion of an object to the force
that caused the change of motion.
Link to Interactive Activity - Quiz follows
P.FM.03.37 Demonstrate how the change in motion of an object is
related to the strength of the force acting upon the object and to
the mass of the object.
P.FM.03.38 Demonstrate when an object does not move in response
to a force, it is because another force is acting on it.
P.FM.E.4
Speed- An object is in motion when its position is changing. The
speed of an object is defined by how far it travels divided by the
amount of time it took to travel that far.
P.FM.03.41 Compare and contrast the motion of objects in terms
of direction.
P.FM.03.42 Identify changes in motion (change direction,
speeding up, slowing down).
P.FM.03.43 Calculate the speed of an object based on the
distance it travels divided by the amount of time it took to travel
that distance.
Energy
K-7 Standard P.EN: Develop an understanding that there are many
forms of energy (such as heat, light, sound, and electrical) and
that energy is transferable by convection, conduction, or radiation.
Understand energy can be in motion, called kinetic; or it can be
stored, called potential. Develop an understanding that as
temperature increases, more energy is added to a system. Understand
nuclear reactions in the sun produce light and heat for the Earth.
P.EN.E.1 Forms of Energy- Heat, electricity, light, and sound
are forms of energy.
P.EN.03.11 Identify light and sound as forms of energy.
P.EN.E.2 Light Properties- Light travels in straight lines.
Shadows result from light not being able to pass through an object.
When light travels at an angle from one substance to another (air
and water), it changes direction.
P.EN.03.21 Demonstrate that light travels in a straight line and
that shadows are made by placing an object in a path of light.
P.EN.03.22 Demonstrate what happens to light when it travels
from water to air. (straw half in water looks bent).
P.EN.E.3
Sound- Vibrating objects produce sound. The pitch of sound
varies by changing the rate of vibration.

P.EN.03.31 Relate sounds to their sources of vibrations (for
example: a musical note produced by a vibrating guitar string, the
sounds of a drum made by the vibrating drum head).

pitch.
