Successor Standards:

  • K.PS.1.1
    Investigate and communicate the idea that different kinds of materials can be solid or liquid depending on temperature. Clarification Statements: Materials chosen must exhibit solid and liquid states in a reasonable temperature range for kindergarten students (e.g., 0–80°F), such as water, crayons, or glue sticks; Only a qualitative description of temperature, such as hot, warm, and cool, is expected.

Same Level Standards:

  • SL.PK.3
    Ask and answer questions in order to seek help, get information, or clarify something that is not understood.

  • PK.MD.B.3
    Sort, categorize, and classify objects by more than one attribute.
  • PreK.PS.1.3
    Differentiate between the properties of an object and those of the material of which it is made.
  • PreK.PS.1.4
    Recognize through investigation that physical objects and materials can change under different circumstances. Clarification Statement: Changes include building up or breaking apart, mixing, dissolving, and changing state.
