Clarification Statement - S.1.ESS.1.1.CS:
Examples of patterns could include that the Sun and moon appear to rise along the eastern horizon, move in a predictable pathway across the sky, and set along the western horizon; and stars other than our Sun are visible at night depending on weather and

Assessment Boundary - S.1.ESS.1.1.AB:
Assessment of star patterns is limited to stars being seen at night and not during the day.

Science and Engineering Practices - PK2.SEP4.2:
Use observations (firsthand or from media) to describe patterns in the natural world in order to answer scientific questions.

Disciplinary Core Ideas - S.1.ESS.1.1.DCI:
ESS1.A: The Universe and its Stars •Patterns of the motion of the sun, moon, and stars in the sky can be observed, described, and predicted.

Crosscutting Concepts - CC1.2:
Patterns in the natural world can be observed, used to describe phenomena, and used as evidence.

Clarification Statement - S.1.ESS.1.2.CS:
Emphasis is on relative comparisons of the amount of daylight in the winter to the amount in the spring or fall.

Assessment Boundary - S.1.ESS.1.2.AB:
Assessment is limited to relative amounts of daylight, not quantifying the hours or time of daylight.

Science and Engineering Practices - PK2.SEP3.2:
Make observations (firsthand or from media) to collect data that can be used to make comparisons.

Disciplinary Core Ideas - S.1.ESS.1.2.DCI:
ESS1.B: Earth and the Solar System •Seasonal patterns of sunrise and sunset can be observed, described, and predicted.

Crosscutting Concepts - CC1.2:
Patterns in the natural world can be observed, used to describe phenomena, and used as evidence.
