3-ESS2-2   Earth's Systems

Students who demonstrate understanding can:

3-ESS2-2. Obtain and combine information to describe climates in different regions of the world.
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 3–5 builds on K–2 experiences and progresses to evaluating the merit and accuracy of ideas and methods.

Disciplinary Core Ideas

ESS2.D: Weather and Climate

Crosscutting Concepts

Patterns

Connections to other DCIs in third grade: N/A

Articulation of DCIs across grade-levels:

MS.ESS2.C ; MS.ESS2.D

Common Core State Standards Connections:

ELA/Literacy —
RI.3.1 Ask and answer questions to demonstrate understanding of a text, referring explicitly to the text as the basis for the answers. (3-ESS2-2)
RI.3.9 Compare and contrast the most important points and key details presented in two texts on the same topic. (3-ESS2-2)
W.3.8 Recall information from experiences or gather information from print and digital sources; take brief notes on sources and sort evidence into provided categories. (3-ESS2-2)
Mathematics —
MP.2Reason abstractly and quantitatively. (3-ESS2-2)
MP.4Model with mathematics. (3-ESS2-2)
