observe, describe, and illustrate the Sun, Moon, stars, and objects in the sky such as clouds.
A student expectation is directly related to the knowledge and skills statement, is more specific about how students demonstrate their learning, and always begins with a verb. Student expectations are further broken down into their component parts, often referred to as “breakouts.”
Vertical alignment shows student expectations in the same subject area at different grade levels that are related to or build upon one another.
observe, describe, and illustrate the Sun, Moon, stars, and objects in the sky such as clouds.
observe objects in the sky using tools such as a telescope and compare how objects in the sky are more visible and can appear different with a tool than with an unaided eye.
It is important to consider how changes in scale, proportion, or quantity affect a system’s structure or performance. Scale refers to the size of an object in relation to another object or its environment. Proportion is the ratio of one quantity to another. Quantity is a count of a set of objects or a measurement of a substance. It is important to note that in kindergarten – grade 2, students will only describe objects in terms of size (scale) and quantity.
Comparing observations of objects in the sky might include size (relative scale). The object's distance will make it appear smaller than its actual size.
