4-ESS2-2 Earth’s Systems

Students who demonstrate understanding can: Analyze and interpret data from maps to describe patterns of Earth’s features.
Clarification Statement: Maps can include topographic maps of Earth’s land and ocean floor, as well as maps of the locations of mountains, continental boundaries, volcanoes, and earthquakes.
Assessment Boundary: N/A

Crosscutting Concepts

Science & Engineering Practices 

Disciplinary Core Ideas 

Patterns:

  • Patterns can be used as evidence to support an explanation.

Analyzing and Interpreting Data:

  • Analyzing data in 3–5 builds on K–2 experiences and progresses to introducing quantitative approaches to collecting data and conducting multiple trials of qualitative observations. When possible and feasible, digital tools should be used.
  • Analyze and interpret data to make sense of phenomena using logical reasoning. 

Plate Tectonics and Large-Scale System Interactions:

  • The locations of mountain ranges, deep ocean trenches, ocean floor structures, earthquakes, and volcanoes occur in patterns.
  • Most earthquakes and volcanoes occur in bands that are often along the boundaries between continents and oceans.
  • Major mountain chains form inside continents or near their edges.
  • Maps can help locate the different land and water features areas of Earth.
