FLORIDA SCIENCE STANDARDS
SECONDARY BODIES OF KNOWLEDGE
These Bodies of Knowledge (BOK) do not represent courses. Courses such as Physics, Chemistry, or Biology
will be developed from these standards, and individual courses may have standards from more than one BOK.
The * (sunbursts) denote benchmarks that include content that all students should know and be able to do.
These benchmarks are considered to be appropriate for statewide assessment or end of course exams. There are
some Florida science courses with curriculum defined by other organizations (such as College Board for
Advanced Placement Physics or International Baccalaureate science courses). Access points have been
developed for the sunburst benchmarks in the BOK's of Nature of Science, Earth and Space Science,
Physical Science, and Life Science.

The benchmarks shown with a background green color are those which are considered appropriate to an
Environmental Science course. |

Note that selecting and clicking on the Benchmark Code will display the General Information page from the
Florida State Standards. Use of a "back button" will return you to the position on this Foundation's
website.
Benchmark Links
Each benchmark has a box underneath it's description.
"Local page:" indicates reference to a page of this Foundation's website. "Remote page:"
indicates reference to a page on another website. Simply cursor over blue text and click as it becomes
underlined to go to the selected page relevant to the benchmark. Using the back button successively will
return to the benchmark of interest. Text book references could also appear as "Textbook page:", for
example. Sometimes a narrative explanation may also be shown.
