This Grade 4 unit is part of the Grade 4 STEMTaught SEEd Boxset.
This is Grade 4 STEMTaught unit corresponds to:

SEEd Standard 4.2.3 - Plan and carry out an investigation to gather evidence from observations that energy can be transferred from place to place by sound, light, heat, and electrical currents. Examples could include sound causing objects to vibrate and electric currents being used to produce motion or light. (PS3.A, PS3.B)

SEEd Standard 4.2.4 - Design a device that converts energy from one form to another. Define the problem, identify criteria and constraints, develop possible solutions using models, analyze data from testing solutions, and propose modifications for optimizing a solution. Emphasize identifying the initial and final forms of energy. Examples could include solar ovens that convert light energy to heat energy or a simple alarm system that converts motion energy into sound energy. (PS3.B, PS3.D, ETS1.A, ETS1.B, ETS1.C)

Disciplinary Core Ideas, Science and Engineering Practices, Crosscutting Concepts, and observable features of student performance are outlined in the document next to the appropriate corresponding text. In conformance to the SEEd standards, the unit begin
