This Grade 5 unit is part of the Grade 5 STEMTaught SEEd Boxset.
This is Grade 5 STEMTaught unit corresponds to:

SEEd Standard 5.1.1 - Design solutions to reduce the effects of naturally occurring events that impact humans. 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 that humans cannot eliminate natural hazards, but they can take steps to reduce their impacts. Examples of events could include landslides, earthquakes, tsunamis, blizzards, or volcanic eruptions. (ESS3.B, 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
