| NGSS | 4 | Earth and Space Sciences | 4-ESS1-1 | Earth's Place in the Universe | Identify evidence from patterns in rock formations and fossils in rock layers to support an explanation for changes in a landscape over time. |
| NGSS | 4 | Earth and Space Sciences | ESS3.A | Natural Resources | Energy and fuels that humans use are derived from natural sources, and their use affects the environment in multiple ways. Some resources are renewable over time, and others are not |
| NGSS | 4 | Earth and Space Sciences | 4-ESS3-1 | Earth and Human Activity | Obtain and combine information to describe that energy and fuels are derived from natural resources and their uses affect the environment. |
| NGSS | 5 | Physical Sciences | 5-PS1-1 | Matter and Its Interactions | Develop a model to describe that matter is made of particles too small to be seen. |
| NGSS | 5 | Physical Sciences | PS1.A | Structure and Properties of Matter | Matter of any type can be subdivided into particles that are too small to see, but even then the matter still exists and can be detected by other means. A model showing that gases are made from matter particles that are too small to see and are moving freely around in space can explain many observations, including the inflation and shape of a balloon and the effects of air on larger particles or objects. |
| NGSS | 5 | Physical Science | 5-PS1-3 | Structure and Properties of Matter | Make observations and measurements to identify materials based on their properties. |
| Health | K-12 | | Standard 3 | | Students will demonstrate the ability to practice health-enhancing behaviors and reduce health risks. |
| Health | K-4 | | Standard 3.3 | | Compare behaviors that are safe to those that are risky or harmful. |
| Health | 5-8 | | Standard 3.3 | | Distinguish between safe and risky or harmful behaviors. |
