Brassfield & Gorrie
From the foundation to the roof, science is vital to the production of materials used in buildings. Join Mitch today as he learns more about how necessary science is to the building industry.
“3. Construct explanations based on evidence from investigations to differentiate among compounds,
mixtures, and solutions.
a. Collect and analyze information to illustrate how synthetic materials (e.g., medicine, food
additives, alternative fuels, plastics) are derived from natural resources and how they impact society.
Objective SCI.8.3.1: Define synthetic, compound, solution, derived, homogeneous mixture, heterogeneous, and natural resources.
Objective SCI.8.3.2 Research how natural resources are used to make synthetic materials.”

6.S.1B. Technology is any modification to the natural world created to fulfill the wants and needs of humans. The engineering design process involves a series of iterative steps used to solve a problem and often leads to the development of a new or improved technology. 7.S.1: The student will use the science and engineering practices, including the processes and skills of scientific inquiry, to develop understandings of science content. 8.S.1A. Conceptual Understanding: The practices of science and engineering support the development of science concepts, develop the habits of mind that are necessary for scientific thinking, and allow students to engage in science in ways that are similar to those used by scientists and engineers.
