Learning Domain: Measurement and Data
Standard: Apply the area and perimeter formulas for rectangles in real world and mathematical problems. For example, find the width of a rectangular room given the area of the flooring and the length, by viewing the area formula as a multiplication equation with an unknown factor.

PA.SCI.3.1.4.A9
Pennsylvania Standards for Science and Technology and Engineering Education
Grade 4
Science Domain: Biological Sciences
Topic: Organisms and Cells
Standard: Distinguish between scientific fact and opinion.Ask questions about objects, organisms, and events.Understand that all scientific investigations involve asking and answering questions and comparing the answer with what is already known.Plan and conduct a simple investigation and understand that different questions require different kinds of investigations.Use simple equipment (tools and other technologies) to gather data and understand that this allows scientists to collect more information than relying only on their senses to gather information.Use data/evidence to construct explanations and understand that scientists develop explanations based on their evidence and compare them with their current scientific knowledge.Communicate procedures and explanations giving priority to evidence and understanding that scientists make their results public, describe their investigations so they can be reproduced, and review and ask questions about the work of other scientists.

Science Domain: Physical Sciences
Topic: Energy
Standard: Apply scientific ideas to design, test, and refine a device that converts energy from one form to another.* [Clarification Statement: Examples of devices could include electric circuits that convert electrical energy into motion energy of a vehicle, light, or sound; and, a passive solar heater that converts light into heat. Examples of constraints could include the materials, cost, or time to design the device.] [Assessment Boundary: Devices should be limited to those that convert motion energy to electric energy or use stored energy to cause motion or produce light or sound.]
