| Use a model to describe that animals’ receive different types of information through their senses, process the information in their brain, and respond to the information in different ways. | Next Generation Science Standards | Grade 4 | Life Science | From Molecules to Organisms: Structures and Processes |
| Make observations to provide evidence that energy can be transferred from place to place by sound, light, heat, and electric currents. | Next Generation Science Standards | Grade 4 | Physical Science | Energy |
| Apply scientific ideas to design, test, and refine a device that converts energy from one form to another. [Examples : electric circuits that convert electrical energy into motion energy of a vehicle, light, or sound; and, a passive solar heater that converts light into heat. Examples of constraints: materials, cost, or design time.] | Next Generation Science Standards | Grade 4 | Physical Science | Energy |
| Develop a model of waves to describe patterns in terms of amplitude and wavelength and that waves can cause objects to move. | Next Generation Science Standards | Grade 4 | Physical Science | Waves and their Applications in Technologies for Information Transfer |
