Standard Description	Objectives
Science Curriculum (based on Newfoundland website) Grade 07 04. Measuring Temperature Concept #01: Temperature is the measure of how hot or cold a substance is.	02. Estimate temperatures of varying substances using means other than thermometer.
Science Curriculum (based on Newfoundland website) Grade 07 04. Measuring Temperature Concept #02: A thermometer is required for accurate temperature measurement.	02. Measure the temperature to an accuracy of 1 Celsius degree.
Science Curriculum (based on Newfoundland website) Grade 07 04. Measuring Temperature Concept #02: A thermometer is required for accurate temperature measurement.	03. Identify instances where accurate temperature measurement is important.
Science Curriculum (based on Newfoundland website) Grade 07 04. Measuring Temperature Concept #01: Temperature is the measure of how hot or cold a substance is.	03. Compare the estimated temperatures with actual temperatures.
Science Curriculum (based on Newfoundland website) Grade 07 04. Measuring Temperature Concept #03: Thermometers have been calibrated with respect to agreed upon fixed points.	02. Build and calibrate a thermometer.
Science Curriculum (based on Newfoundland website) Grade 07 04. Measuring Temperature Concept #03: Thermometers have been calibrated with respect to agreed upon fixed points.	03. Measure the temperature of varying substances using the built thermometer.
Science Curriculum (based on Newfoundland website) Grade 07 04. Measuring Temperature Concept #03: Thermometers have been calibrated with respect to agreed upon fixed points.	04. Compare the accuracy of the built thermometer by comparing the temperature measurements obtained with the built thermometer to those obtained using a laboratory thermometer.
Science Curriculum (based on Newfoundland website) Grade 07 04. Measuring Temperature Concept #04: A thermometer's structure, design and materials are related to its function.	01. Describe different types of thermometers: liquid, gas, bimetallic strip and thermocouples.
Science Curriculum (based on Newfoundland website) Grade 07 04. Measuring Temperature Concept #04: A thermometer's structure, design and materials are related to its function.	02. Measure temperature change using each of the above thermometers.
Science Curriculum (based on Newfoundland website) Grade 07 04. Measuring Temperature Concept #04: A thermometer's structure, design and materials are related to its function.	03. Describe how the structure, design and materials of a thermometer are related to its function.
Science Curriculum (based on Newfoundland website) Grade 07 04. Measuring Temperature Concept #03: Thermometers have been calibrated with respect to agreed upon fixed points.	05. Suggest ways of improving the built thermometer.
Science Curriculum (based on Newfoundland website) Grade 07 04. Measuring Temperature Concept #06: Thermometers work because of the uniform expansion and contraction of specific substances.	01. Using knowledge of expansion and contraction, explain how liquids, gas and bimetallic strip thermometers work.
Science Curriculum (based on Newfoundland website) Grade 07 05. Chemicals and You Concept #01: Survey techniques are valid means of collecting scientific data.	03. Analyze data through grouping respondents and tallying results.
Science Curriculum (based on Newfoundland website) Grade 07 07. Doing an Independent Science Project Concept #12: Data can be efficiently recorded, presented and interpreted through the use of charts, tables, and graphs.	02. Analyze the data, using the charts, tables and graphs, so as to decide upon a conclusion to the investigation.
