9-12 I.n. Know that when an observation does not agree with an accepted scientific theory, the observation is sometimes mistaken or fraudulent (e.g., the Piltdown Man fossil or unidentified flying objects) and that the theory is sometimes wrong (e.g., the Ptolemaic model of the movement of the Sun, Moon, and planets).
Publisher Notes/Additional Comments (note to publishers: please include grade level/standard when listing comments): *1: (Grades 9-12): Additional practice opportunities can be found in Physical Science Skill Track Software *2: 1.b. (Grades 9-12): Foundation principles for this standard can be found on SE page 71 *3: 2.c. (Grades 9-12): Foundation principles for this standard can be found on SE pages 108, 118 *4: 6.d. (Grades 9-12): Additional foundation principles for this standard can be found on SE pages 88, 89; TE 263 *5: INVESTIGATION AND EXPERIMENTATION I.k. (Grades 9-12): The cumulative nature of scientific evidence is emphasized throughout the text. For example, the history of research and understanding regarding the planet Mars in explained on SE pages 89-90. The foundation of our understanding of constellations is given on SE page 121, and so on. In addition, information is presented throughout in building block style, with foundational principles introduced first, and with more complex applications following. See, for example, Chapter 6: Earth Chemistry, which begins with a simple explanation of matter and its properties, then explains elements and atoms, then moves on to compounds and mixtures.
