  2. STANDARDS AND LEARNING GOALS • GA: Grade 7 • Life Science • S7L1. Obtain, evaluate, and communicate information to investigate the diversity of living organisms and how they can be compared scientifically. • a. Develop and defend a model that categorizes organisms based on common characteristics. • b. Evaluate historical models of how organisms were classified based on physical characteristics and how that led to the six kingdom system (currently archaea, bacteria, protists, fungi, plants, and animals).
