Gather and synthesize information that sensory receptors respond to stimuli, resulting in immediate behavior and/or storage as memories.
Clarification statement: Assessment does not include mechanisms for the transmission of this information.
Performance Level Descriptions
PLDs communicate the knowledge and skills expected of students to demonstrate proficiency in each Learning Standard. NYS assessments classify student performance into one of four levels.
Resources
Examples and discussion of resources for the learning, teaching, and assessment of MS-LS1-8.

Assessment
What assessment of MS-LS1-8 might look like on a NY state exam.

NGSS Dimensions
Performance expectation MS-LS1-8 was developed using the following elements from the NRC document A Framework for K-12 Science Education:
- Obtaining, Evaluating, and Communicating Information
- Gather, read, and synthesize information from multiple appropriate sources and assess the credibility, accuracy, and possible bias of each publication and methods used, and describe how they are supported or not supported by evidence.
- LS1.D: Information Processing
- Each sense receptor responds to different inputs (electromagnetic, mechanical, chemical), transmitting signals to the brain, which are processed to result in immediate behaviors or memories.
- (NYSED) Plants respond to stimuli such as gravity (geotropism) and light (phototropism).
- Cause and Effect
- Cause and effect relationships may be used to predict phenomena in natural or designed systems.
