Planetary Objects
Composition and Structure:
-Planetary materials are solid rock, soil and ice (K-4)
-Solid materials have different physical and chemical properties (K-4)
-Soils have color and texture (K-4)
-Planetary objects have layers (5-8)
-Rock layers may form plates that can move (5-8)
-Landforms result from constructive and destructive forces (5-8)
-Solid material is changed and recycled by compacting, heating and recrystalizing (5-8)
-Planetary objects have internal and external sources of energy (9-12)
-Transfer of heat causes plates to move (9-12)
