Below is a listing of KERA Core Content requirements (based on grade 5) that our presentation could satisfy. Please keep in mind that different presentations fulfill different requirements, based on presentation topics.
Core Content :
Practical Living: PL-E-1.1.1; individual behaviors (e.g., etiquette, fairness, politeness, sharing, listening) show responsibility and respect to others (e.g., families, peers, teams).
Practical Living: PL-E-1.6.1; there are health and safety hazards to recognize and avoid at home, school, and play.
Practical Living: PL-E-3.1.5; there are consumer decisions (e.g., reducing, recycling, reusing) that have positive impacts on the environment.
Practical Living: PL-E-3.3.1; There are community organizations (e.g., fire department, police department, sanitation department, nonprofit health organizations) that provide health and safety services.
Practical Living: PL-E-3.3.2; to protect all citizens, there are community guidelines (e.g. school inspections, trash collection, water treatment, waste treatment, animal control, immunization) that promote healthy living environments in the community.
Science: SC-M-3.1.1; living systems at all levels of organization demonstrate the complementary nature of structure and function. Important levels of organization for structure and function include cells, tissues, organs, organ systems, organisms (e.g., bacteria, protists, fungi, plants, animals), and ecosystems.
Science: SC-M-3.5.2; populations of organisms can be categorized by the function they serve in an ecosystem. Plants and some microorganisms are producers because they make their own food. All animals, including humans, are consumers, and obtain their food by eating other organisms. Decomposers, primarily bacteria and fungi, are consumers that use waste materials and dead organisms for food. Food webs identify the relationships among producers, consumers, and decomposers in an ecosystem
Social Studies: SS-E-3.1.1; scarcity requires people to make choices about using goods, services, and limited resources.
Social Studies: SS-E-3.4.2; the government provides goods and services (e.g., police force, fire fighting, education, food surpluses) and pays for them with taxes. Private businesses offer similar goods and services (e.g., security guards, private schools, grocery stores) for profit.
Social Studies: SS-E-4.4.1; people depend upon the physical environment for food, shelter, and clothing.
