Students who demonstrate understanding can: Support an argument that differences in the apparent brightness of the sun compared to other stars is due to their relative distances from Earth.
Clarification Statement: N/A
Assessment Boundary: Assessment is limited to relative distances, not sizes, of stars. Assessment does not include other factors that affect apparent brightness (such as stellar masses, age, stage).

Crosscutting Concepts

Science & Engineering Practices 

Disciplinary Core Ideas 

Scale, Proportion and Quantity:

  • Natural objects exist from the very small to the immensely large.

Engaging in Argument from Evidence:

  • Engaging in argument from evidence in 3–5 builds on K–2 experiences and progresses to critiquing the scientific explanations or solutions proposed by peers by citing relevant evidence about the natural and designed world(s).
  • Support an argument with evidence, data, or a model. 

The Universe and Its Stars:

  • The sun is a star that appears larger and brighter than other stars because it is closer. Stars range greatly in their distance from Earth.
