Description
⭐️ In these science differentiated passages students will study and create data in tables and graphical displays to describe typical weather conditions expected during a particular season.
Other Standards To Address in Questions and Images
- 3.MD.A.2 - Measure and estimate liquid volumes and masses of objects using standard units of grams (g), kilograms (kg), and liters (l). Add, subtract, multiply, or divide to solve one-step word problems involving masses or volumes that are given in the same units, e.g., by using drawings (such as a beaker with a measurement scale) to represent the problem.
- 3.MD.B.3 - Draw a scaled picture graph and a scaled bar graph to represent a data set with several categories. Solve one- and two-step "how many more" and "how many less" problems using information presented in scaled bar graphs.
- MP.2 - Reason abstractly and quantitatively.
- MP.4 - Model with mathematics.
- MP.5 - Use appropriate tools strategically.
⭐️ This unit is perfect for 3rd grade. It was created to align with 3-ESS2-1 but can be used in any classroom to teach students about seasonal weather conditions.
⭐️Integrates key reading skills, with a focus on analyzing text features and drawing conclusions. Incorporates key vocabulary, text features, graphic organizers, and open-ended questions.
