GRADE 6
Science and Engineering Process Standards (SEPS)
SEPS.1 Posing questions (for science) and
defining problems (for engineering)
A practice of science is posing and refining
questions that lead to descriptions and
explanations of how the natural and designed
world(s) work and these questions can be
scientifically tested. Engineering questions
clarify problems to determine criteria for
possible solutions and identify constraints to
solve problems about the designed world.

SEPS.2 Developing and using models and
tools
A practice of both science and engineering is to
use and construct conceptual models that
illustrate ideas and explanations. Models are
used to develop questions, predictions and
explanations; analyze and identify flaws in
systems; build and revise scientific explanations
and proposed engineered systems; and
communicate ideas. Measurements and
observations are used to revise and improve
models and designs. Models include, but are
not limited to: diagrams, drawings, physical
replicas, mathematical representations,
analogies, and other technological models.

SEPS.3 Constructing and performing
investigations
Scientists and engineers are constructing and
performing investigations in the field or
laboratory, working collaboratively as well as
individually. Researching analogous problems
in order to gain insight into possible solutions
allows them to make conjectures about the
form and meaning of the solution. A plan to a
solution pathway is developed prior to
constructing and performing investigations.
Constructing investigations systematically
encompasses identified variables and
parameters generating quality data. While
performing, scientists and engineers monitor
and record progress. After performing, they
evaluate to make changes to modify and repeat
the investigation if necessary.

SEPS.4 Analyzing and interpreting data
Investigations produce data that must be
analyzed in order to derive meaning. Because
data patterns and trends are not always
obvious, scientists and engineers use a range of
tools to identify the significant features in the
data. They identify sources of error in the
investigations and calculate the degree of
certainty in the results. Advances in science
and engineering makes analysis of proposed
solutions more efficient and effective. They
analyze their results by continually asking
themselves questions; possible questions may
be, but are not limited to: Does this make
sense? Could my results be duplicated? and/or
Does the design solve the problem with the
given constraints?

SEPS.5 Using mathematics and
computational thinking
In both science and engineering, mathematics
and computation are fundamental tools for
representing physical variables and their
relationships. They are used for a range of
tasks such as constructing simulations; solving
equations exactly or approximately; and
recognizing, expressing, and applying
quantitative relationships. Mathematical and
computational approaches enable scientists
and engineers to predict the behavior of
systems and test the validity of such
predictions. Scientists and engineers
understand how mathematical ideas
interconnect and build on one another to
produce a coherent whole.

science) and designing solutions (for
engineering)
Scientists and engineers use their results from
the investigation in constructing descriptions
and explanations, citing the interpretation of
data, connecting the investigation to how the
natural and designed world(s) work. They
construct or design logical coherent
explanations or solutions of phenomena that
incorporate their understanding of science
and/or engineering or a model that represents
it, and are consistent with the available
evidence.

SEPS.7 Engaging in argument from evidence
Scientists and engineers use reasoning and
argument based on evidence to identify the
best explanation for a natural phenomenon or
the best solution to a design problem. Scientists
and engineers use argumentation, the process
by which evidence-based conclusions and
solutions are reached, to listen to, compare,
and evaluate competing ideas and methods
based on merits. Scientists and engineers
engage in argumentation when investigating a
phenomenon, testing a design solution,
resolving questions about measurements,
building data models, and using evidence to
evaluate claims.

SEPS.8 Obtaining, evaluating, and
communicating information
Scientists and engineers need to be
communicating clearly and articulating the
ideas and methods they generate. Critiquing
and communicating ideas individually and in
groups is a critical professional activity.
Communicating information and ideas can be
done in multiple ways: using tables, diagrams,
graphs, models, and equations, as well as,
orally, in writing, and through extended
discussions. Scientists and engineers employ
multiple sources to obtain information that is
used to evaluate the merit and validity of
claims, methods, and designs.

defining problems (for engineering)
A practice of science is posing and refining
questions that lead to descriptions and
explanations of how the natural and designed
world(s) work and these questions can be
scientifically tested. Engineering questions
clarify problems to determine criteria for
possible solutions and identify constraints to
solve problems about the designed world.

A practice of both science and engineering is to
use and construct conceptual models that
illustrate ideas and explanations. Models are
used to develop questions, predictions and
explanations; analyze and identify flaws in
systems; build and revise scientific explanations
and proposed engineered systems; and
communicate ideas. Measurements and
observations are used to revise and improve
models and designs. Models include, but are
not limited to: diagrams, drawings, physical
replicas, mathematical representations,
analogies, and other technological models.

SEPS.3 Constructing and performing
investigations
Scientists and engineers are constructing and
performing investigations in the field or
laboratory, working collaboratively as well as
individually. Researching analogous problems
in order to gain insight into possible solutions
allows them to make conjectures about the
form and meaning of the solution. A plan to a
solution pathway is developed prior to
constructing and performing investigations.
Constructing investigations systematically
encompasses identified variables and
parameters generating quality data. While
performing, scientists and engineers monitor
and record progress. After performing, they
evaluate to make changes to modify and repeat
the investigation if necessary.

SEPS.4 Analyzing and interpreting data
Investigations produce data that must be
analyzed in order to derive meaning. Because
data patterns and trends are not always
obvious, scientists and engineers use a range of
tools to identify the significant features in the
data. They identify sources of error in the
investigations and calculate the degree of
certainty in the results. Advances in science
and engineering makes analysis of proposed
solutions more efficient and effective. They
analyze their results by continually asking
themselves questions; possible questions may
be, but are not limited to: Does this make
sense? Could my results be duplicated? and/or
Does the design solve the problem with the
given constraints?

SEPS.5 Using mathematics and
computational thinking
In both science and engineering, mathematics
and computation are fundamental tools for
representing physical variables and their
relationships. They are used for a range of
tasks such as constructing simulations; solving
equations exactly or approximately; and
recognizing, expressing, and applying
quantitative relationships. Mathematical and
computational approaches enable scientists
and engineers to predict the behavior of
systems and test the validity of such
predictions. Scientists and engineers
understand how mathematical ideas
interconnect and build on one another to
produce a coherent whole.

science) and designing solutions (for

Scientists and engineers use their results from
the investigation in constructing descriptions
and explanations, citing the interpretation of
data, connecting the investigation to how the
natural and designed world(s) work. They
construct or design logical coherent
explanations or solutions of phenomena that
incorporate their understanding of science
and/or engineering or a model that represents
it, and are consistent with the available
evidence.

SEPS.7 Engaging in argument from evidence
Scientists and engineers use reasoning and
argument based on evidence to identify the
best explanation for a natural phenomenon or
the best solution to a design problem. Scientists
and engineers use argumentation, the process
by which evidence-based conclusions and
solutions are reached, to listen to, compare,
and evaluate competing ideas and methods
based on merits. Scientists and engineers
engage in argumentation when investigating a
phenomenon, testing a design solution,
resolving questions about measurements,
building data models, and using evidence to
evaluate claims.

SEPS.8 Obtaining, evaluating, and
communicating information
Scientists and engineers need to be
communicating clearly and articulating the
ideas and methods they generate. Critiquing
and communicating ideas individually and in
groups is a critical professional activity.
Communicating information and ideas can be
done in multiple ways: using tables, diagrams,
graphs, models, and equations, as well as,
orally, in writing, and through extended
discussions. Scientists and engineers employ
multiple sources to obtain information that is
used to evaluate the merit and validity of
claims, methods, and designs.

Each Interactive Science module is organized
around several Big Ideas of Science that are
introduced at the beginning of the Student
Edition modules. These Big Ideas are associated
with one or more Big Questions, each of which
serves to engage students in the material
studied within each chapter. Lessons are
focused around Unlock the Big Question
concepts (indicated by a key icon) that students
master in order to build toward answering the
chapter’s Big Question. Students Answer,
Review, and Apply the Big Question in the
Assess Your Understanding, Study Guide, and
Review and Assessment pages toward the end
of each chapter.

SEPS.2 Developing and using models and
tools
A practice of both science and engineering is to
use and construct conceptual models that
illustrate ideas and explanations. Models are
used to develop questions, predictions and
explanations; analyze and identify flaws in
systems; build and revise scientific explanations
and proposed engineered systems; and
communicate ideas. Measurements and
observations are used to revise and improve
models and designs. Models include, but are
not limited to: diagrams, drawings, physical
replicas, mathematical representations,
analogies, and other technological models.

SEPS.3 Constructing and performing
investigations
Scientists and engineers are constructing and
performing investigations in the field or
laboratory, working collaboratively as well as
individually. Researching analogous problems
in order to gain insight into possible solutions
allows them to make conjectures about the
form and meaning of the solution. A plan to a
solution pathway is developed prior to
constructing and performing investigations.
Constructing investigations systematically
encompasses identified variables and
parameters generating quality data. While
performing, scientists and engineers monitor
and record progress. After performing, they
evaluate to make changes to modify and repeat
the investigation if necessary.

SEPS.4 Analyzing and interpreting data
Investigations produce data that must be
analyzed in order to derive meaning. Because
data patterns and trends are not always
obvious, scientists and engineers use a range of
tools to identify the significant features in the
data. They identify sources of error in the
investigations and calculate the degree of
certainty in the results. Advances in science
and engineering makes analysis of proposed
solutions more efficient and effective. They
analyze their results by continually asking
themselves questions; possible questions may
be, but are not limited to: Does this make
sense? Could my results be duplicated? and/or
Does the design solve the problem with the
given constraints?

SEPS.5 Using mathematics and
computational thinking
In both science and engineering, mathematics
and computation are fundamental tools for
representing physical variables and their
relationships. They are used for a range of
tasks such as constructing simulations; solving
equations exactly or approximately; and
recognizing, expressing, and applying
quantitative relationships. Mathematical and
computational approaches enable scientists
and engineers to predict the behavior of
systems and test the validity of such
predictions. Scientists and engineers
understand how mathematical ideas
interconnect and build on one another to
produce a coherent whole.

science) and designing solutions (for
engineering)
Scientists and engineers use their results from
the investigation in constructing descriptions
and explanations, citing the interpretation of
data, connecting the investigation to how the
natural and designed world(s) work. They
construct or design logical coherent
explanations or solutions of phenomena that
incorporate their understanding of science
and/or engineering or a model that represents
it, and are consistent with the available
evidence.

SEPS.7 Engaging in argument from evidence
Scientists and engineers use reasoning and
argument based on evidence to identify the
best explanation for a natural phenomenon or
the best solution to a design problem. Scientists
and engineers use argumentation, the process
by which evidence-based conclusions and
solutions are reached, to listen to, compare,
and evaluate competing ideas and methods
based on merits. Scientists and engineers
engage in argumentation when investigating a
phenomenon, testing a design solution,
resolving questions about measurements,
building data models, and using evidence to
evaluate claims.

SEPS.8 Obtaining, evaluating, and
communicating information
Scientists and engineers need to be
communicating clearly and articulating the
ideas and methods they generate. Critiquing
and communicating ideas individually and in
groups is a critical professional activity.
Communicating information and ideas can be
done in multiple ways: using tables, diagrams,
graphs, models, and equations, as well as,
orally, in writing, and through extended
discussions. Scientists and engineers employ
multiple sources to obtain information that is
used to evaluate the merit and validity of
claims, methods, and designs.
