Grade Discipline Core Idea
PreK-2 ESS2.A: Earth materials and systems Wind and water change the shape of the land.
3-5 ESS2.A: Earth materials and systems Four major Earth systems interact. Rainfall helps to shape the land and affects the types of living things found in a region. Water, ice, wind, organisms, and gravity break rocks, soils, and sediments into smaller pieces and move them around.
6-8 ESS2.A: Earth materials and systems Energy flows and matter cycles within and among Earth's systems, including the sun and Earth's interior as primary energy sources. Plate tectonics is one result of these processes.
9-12 ESS2.A: Earth materials and systems Feedback effects exist within and among Earth's systems.
6-8 ESS3.A: Natural resources Humans depend on Earth's land, ocean, atmosphere, and biosphere for different resources, many of which are limited or not renewable. Resources are distributed unevenly around the planet as a result of past geologic processes.
9-12 ESS3.A: Natural resources Resource availability has guided the development of human society and use of natural resources has associated costs, risks, and benefits.
