5-ESS2-2 Earth’s Systems

Students who demonstrate understanding can: Describe and graph the amounts and percentages of water and fresh water in various reservoirs to provide evidence about the distribution of water on Earth.
Clarification Statement: N/A
Assessment Boundary: Assessment is limited to oceans, lakes, rivers, glaciers, ground water, and polar ice caps, and does not include the atmosphere. Only a tiny fraction is in streams, lakes, wetlands, and the atmosphere.

Crosscutting Concepts

Science & Engineering Practices 

Disciplinary Core Ideas 

Scale, Proportion, and Quantity:

  • Standard units are used to measure and describe physical quantities such as weight and volume.

Using Mathematics and Computational Thinking:

  • Mathematical and computational thinking in 3–5 builds on K–2 experiences and progresses to extending quantitative measurements to a variety of physical properties and using computation and mathematics to analyze data and compare alternative design solutions.
  • Describe and graph quantities such as area and volume to address scientific questions. 

The Roles of Water in Earth’s Surface Processes:

  • Nearly all of Earth’s available water is in the ocean.
  • Most fresh water is in glaciers or underground; only a tiny fraction is in streams, lakes, wetlands, and the atmosphere.
