- TEKS 2. The student knows the Earth’s unique characteristics and
conditions. The student is expected to:
- plan and implement investigative procedures including asking questions,
formulating testable hypotheses, and selecting equipment and technology;
- collect data and make measurements with precision;
- organize, analyze, evaluate, make inferences, and predict trends from data;
and
- communicate valid conclusions.
- TEKS 3. The student knows the Earth’s unique characteristics and
conditions. The student is expected to:
- analyze, review, and critique scientific explanations, including hypotheses
and theories, as to their strengths and weaknesses using scientific evidence and
information;
- evaluate the impact of research on scientific thought, society,
and the environment;
- describe the connections between geology, meteorology, oceanography, and
future careers; and
- TEKS 6. The student knows the origin and composition of minerals and
rocks and the significance of the rock cycle. The student is expected to:
- analyze the processes that power the movement of the Earth’s
continental and oceanic plates and identify the effects of this movement
including faulting, folding, earthquakes, and volcanic activity; and
- TEKS 9. The student knows the processes and end products of
weathering. The student is expected to:
- research and describe the origin of fossil fuels such as coal, oil, and
natural gas;
- TEKS 11. The student knows characteristics of oceans. The student is
expected to:
- identify physical characteristics of ocean water including salinity,
solubility, heat capacity, colligative properties, and density; and
- compare the topography of the ocean floor to the topography of the
continents.
