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.
PreK-2 ESS3.A: Natural resources Living things need water, air, and resources from the land, and they live in places that have the things they need. Humans use natural resources for everything they do.
3-5 ESS3.A: Natural resources Energy and fuels humans use are derived from natural sources and their use affects the environment. Some resources are renewable over time, others are not.
