Cross Cutting Concepts
Structure and Function: The way an object is shaped or structured determines many of its properties and functions. Stability and Change: For both designed and natural systems, conditions that affect stability and factors that control rates of change are critical elements to consider and understand.

Identify a problem or need and create a plan to solve. (F.SC4.1)	Identify a simple problem with the design of an object that reflects a need or a want. Include criteria for success and constraints on materials, time, or cost. (3-5.E.1) Construct and perform fair investigations in which variables are controlled and failure points are considered to identify aspects of a model or prototype that can be improved. (3-5.E.3)
