4. Imperial Valley Discovery Zone “Inquiry Learning in Science” Classification Using Physical Properties 2-PS1-1 prepack IVDZ property – a way to describe an object, tells you something about an object Find a few objects around your classroom and talk about their properties!

5. Imperial Valley Discovery Zone “Inquiry Learning in Science” Classification Using Physical Properties 2-PS1-1 prepack IVDZ in common – when at least two objects have a property that is the same. The bike and the scooter have wheels in common. The binoculars and the telescope have seeing far away in common.

6. Imperial Valley Discovery Zone “Inquiry Learning in Science” Classification Using Physical Properties 2-PS1-1 prepack IVDZ in common – when at least two objects have a property that is the same. Teacher – find two things that have a property in common. Kids – What property do these have in common?

7. Imperial Valley Discovery Zone “Inquiry Learning in Science” Classification Using Physical Properties 2-PS1-1 prepack IVDZ classify or sort – to put things, like animals or objects, into groups that have at least one property in common. We can classify these objects as either flying objects or rolling objects. Flying Objects Rolling Objects

8. Imperial Valley Discovery Zone “Inquiry Learning in Science” Classification Using Physical Properties 2-PS1-1 prepack IVDZ classify or sort – to put things, like animals or objects, into groups that have at least one property in common. How can we sort out or classify these objects? Animals Plants

9. Imperial Valley Discovery Zone “Inquiry Learning in Science” Classification Using Physical Properties 2-PS1-1 prepack IVDZ hard or soft – how tough an object is, hardness is the way that an object changes (scratches) when another object rubs against it. Soft | | | | | | | | | | Hard

10. Imperial Valley Discovery Zone “Inquiry Learning in Science” Classification Using Physical Properties 2-PS1-1 prepack IVDZ smooth or rough – describes the texture of an object, how an object feels when touched smooth | | | | | | | | | | rough

11. Imperial Valley Discovery Zone “Inquiry Learning in Science” Classification Using Physical Properties 2-PS1-1 prepack IVDZ spectrum – the leveling of an property between two extremes For example, when people get hurt and go to the doctor, the doctor needs to know how much it hurts. Some people may say they don’t hurt at all (0). While some may say it hurts worst (5). Most people will hurt somewhere between the two.

12. Imperial Valley Discovery Zone “Inquiry Learning in Science” Classification Using Physical Properties 2-PS1-1 prepack IVDZ spectrum – the leveling of an property between two extremes. The color spectrum measures the wavelength that is needed to make a color. The color starts with 400 for violet to 750 for purple. Where on the color spectrum would the fruit below fit?
