WV Instructional Goals and Objectives

*9.10 (WV - Science:Grade Nine Science:Scientific Processes/Thinking Skills) identify analyze and infer using patterns and relationships in data (e.g. cause and effect graphical analysis including interpretation and extrapolation)

*9.16 (WV - Science:Grade Nine Science:Scientific Processes/Thinking Skills) design conduct evaluate and revise experiments (e.g. identify questions and concepts that guide scientific investigations design and conduct scientific investigations use technology and mathematics to improve investigations and communications formulate and revise scientific explanations and models using logic and evidence recognize alternative explanations communicate and defend a scientific argument understand about scientific inquiry)

*9.23 (WV - Science:Grade Nine Science:Science Content and Themes) analyze and explain the principles of genetics (e.g. monohybrid and dihybrid crosses mutations genotypes phenotypes X and Y chromosomes DNA probability diversity) - models

*9.26 (WV - Science:Grade Nine Science:Science Content and Themes) identify and describe microscopic organisms and foreign substances in the environment and their harmful effects (e.g. microorganisms mutagens carcinogens) - systems

*10.8 (WV - Science:Grade Ten Science:Scientific Processes/Thinking Skills) demonstrate science processes within a problem solving setting (e.g. observing measuring communicating comparing ordering categorizing classifying relating hypothesizing predicting inferring and applying)

*B.21 (WV - Science:Biology:Science Themes and Subject Matter) apply molecular genetic principles to explain energy patterns (e.g. DNA RNA recombinant DNA role of enzymes mutations population dynamics)

*10.28 (WV - Science:Grade Ten Science:Science Content and Themes) explain the role of DNA in controlling cellular functions (e.g. protein synthesis heredity cell division) - systems

*10.34 (WV - Science:Grade Ten Science:Science Content and Themes) illustrate the interdependence of cells tissues organs and systems to the life functions of the whole organism - models

*ES.58 (WV - Science:Environmental Earth Science:Science Themes and Subject Matter) develop decision-making skills with respect to addressing environmental problems
