Assessment Boundary: none
Developing and Using Models
Modeling in K–2 builds on prior experiences and progresses to include using and developing models (i.e., diagram, drawing, physical replica, diorama, dramatization, or storyboard) that represent concrete events or design solutions.
Develop a simple model based on evidence to represent a proposed object or tool. (K-2-ETS1-2)
ETS1.B: Developing Possible Solutions
Designs can be conveyed through sketches, drawings, or physical models. These representations are useful in communicating ideas for a problem’s solutions to other people. (K-2-ETS1-2)
Structure and Function
The shape and stability of structures of natural and designed objects are related to their function(s). (K-2-ETS1-2)
