2-ESS2-3   Earth's Systems

Students who demonstrate understanding can:

2-ESS2-3. Obtain information to identify where water is found on Earth and that it can be solid or liquid.
The performance expectation above was developed using the following elements from the NRC document A Framework for K-12 Science Education:

Science and Engineering Practices

Obtaining, Evaluating, and Communicating Information

Obtaining, evaluating, and communicating information in K–2 builds on prior experiences and uses observations and texts to communicate new information.

Disciplinary Core Ideas

ESS2.C: The Roles of Water in Earth’s Surface Processes

Crosscutting Concepts

Patterns

Connections to other DCIs in second grade:

2.PS1.A

Articulation of DCIs across grade-bands:

5.ESS2.C

Common Core State Standards Connections:

ELA/Literacy —
W.2.6 With guidance and support from adults, use a variety of digital tools to produce and publish writing, including in collaboration with peers. (2-ESS2-3)
W.2.8 Recall information from experiences or gather information from provided sources to answer a question. (2-ESS2-3)
