Title: 2-ESS2 Earth’s Systems
Performance Expectation: Obtain information to identify where water is found on Earth and that it can be solid or liquid.
Disciplinary Core Idea(s):
ESS2.C: The Roles of Water in Earth’s Surface Processes Water is found in the ocean, rivers, lakes, and ponds. Water exists as solid ice and in liquid form.
Science & Engineering Practices: Obtaining, Evaluating, and Communicating Information Obtain information using various texts, text features (e.g., headings, tables of contents, glossaries, electronic menus, icons), and other media that will be useful in answering a scientific question.
Crosscutting Concepts: Patterns Patterns in the natural world can be observed.
California Environmental Principles and Concepts:
N/A
California 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. W.2.8: Recall information from experiences or gather information from provided sources to answer a question.
DCI Connections:
Connections to other DCIs in second grade: 2.PS1.A Articulation across grade-levels: 5.ESS2.C

Title: 4-PS4 Waves and Their Applications in Technologies for Information Transfer
Performance Expectation: Generate and compare multiple solutions that use patterns to transfer information.* [Clarification Statement: Examples of solutions could include drums sending coded information through sound waves, using a grid of 1’s and 0’s representing black and white to send information about a picture, and using Morse code to send text.]
Disciplinary Core Idea(s):
PS4.C: Information Technologies and Instrumentation Digitized information can be transmitted over long distances without significant degradation. High-tech devices, such as computers or cell phones, can receive and decode information—convert it from digitized form to voice—and vice versa. ETS1.C: Optimizing the Design Solution Different solutions need to be tested in order to determine which of them best solves the problem, given the criteria and the constraints. (secondary to 4-PS4-3)
Science & Engineering Practices: Constructing Explanations and Designing Solutions Generate and compare multiple solutions to a problem based on how well they meet the criteria and constraints of the design solution.
Crosscutting Concepts: Patterns Similarities and differences in patterns can be used to sort and classify designed products. Connections to Engineering, Technology, and Applications of Science: Interdependence of Science, Engineering, and Technology Knowledge of relevant scientific concepts and research findings is important in engineering.
