New Brunswick Curriculum
1.3.2: describe how microorganisms meet their basic needs, including obtaining food, water, and air, and moving around
2.2.3: use the terms attraction, repulsion, electrons, positive charge and negative charge in meaningful contexts while exploring static electricity
2.3.1: compare a variety of electrical pathways by constructing simple circuits, and illustrate the electrical circuits with drawings and appropriate symbols
2.3.2: follow instructions for testing the conductivity of different solids and liquids, and draw conclusions as to which materials tested were insulators or conductors
2.3.3: describe the role of switches in electrical circuits, and identify materials that can be used to make a switch
2.3.4: compare characteristics of series and parallel circuits
2.5.1: demonstrate how electricity in circuits can produce light, heat, sound, motion, and magnetic effects
2.5.2: propose electrical circuitry problems to investigate, and plan a set of steps to solve them
2.6.3: identify and explain sources of electricity as renewable or nonrenewable
2.7.1: identify and explain different factors that could lead to a decrease in electrical energy consumption in the home and at school, and how this will help protect the environment
3.1.1: rephrase questions about drag in a testable form and then carry out procedures, make and record observations, to test the performance of a flying device
3.1.2: describe and demonstrate methods for altering drag in flying devices
4.2.2: demonstrate how Earthâ??s rotation causes the day and night cycle and how Earthâ??s revolution causes the yearly cycle of seasons
Seasons in 3D
Seasons: Earth, Moon, and Sun
Seasons: Why do we have them?
Summer and Winter

2D Eclipse
3D Eclipse
Phases of the Moon
Tides - Metric
4.3.1: select and use tools in building models of the solar system that show approximate relative size of the planets and sun, and the approximate relative orbits of the planets around the sun
4.3.2: describe the physical characteristics of components of the solar system
