Description: Thinking Slides: docs.google.com/presentation/d/1uJ76o13enZXJVBX9B9fe7_uSA2SRf-lKte2S5mHrPRQ/template/preview The Wonder of Science: thewonderofscience.com/mlccc63 In this video Paul Andersen shows conceptual thinking in a mini-lesson on material properties. Two examples are included in the video and two additional examples are included in the linked thinking slides. TERMS Structure - parts in a material object Function - an activity or purpose for a thing Properties - any traits of an object that can be measured Material - the matter of which a thing is or can be made Shape - external form of an object Purpose - the reason for which something is done or created This progression is based on the Crosscutting Concept elements from the NRC document A Framework for K-12 Science Education. “Structures can be designed to serve particular functions by taking into account properties of different materials, and how materials can be shaped and used.” Source: nextgenscience.org
