Develop and use a model of the Earth-Sun-moon system to describe the cyclic patterns of lunar phases, eclipses of the Sun and moon, and seasons.
Clarification statement: Examples of models could include physical, graphical, or conceptual models.
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.
Develop and use multiple models of the Earth-Sun-Moon system to explain why the patterns of lunar phases, eclipses of the Sun and Moon, and seasons are cyclic.
Develop and use a model of the Earth-Sun- Moon system to describe the cyclic patterns of lunar phases, eclipses of the Sun and Moon, and seasons.
Use a given model of the Earth-Sun-Moon system to describe the cyclic pattern of either lunar phases, eclipses of the Sun and Moon, or seasons.
Use a given model of the Earth-Sun-Moon system to describe why seasons or the changing Moon’s appearance are cyclic in nature.

NGSS Dimensions
Performance expectation MS-ESS1-1 was developed using the following elements from the NRC document A Framework for K-12 Science Education:
Science and Engineering Practices
- Developing and Using Models
- Develop and use a model to describe phenomena.
Disciplinary Core Ideas
- ESS1.A: The Universe and Its Stars
- Patterns of the apparent motion of the Sun, the Moon, and stars in the sky can be observed, described, predicted, and explained with models.
- ESS1.B: Earth and the Solar System
- This model of the solar system can explain eclipses of the sun and the moon. Earth’s spin axis is fixed in direction over the short-term but tilted relative to its orbit around the sun. The seasons are a result of that tilt and are caused by the differential intensity of sunlight on different areas of Earth across the year.
Crosscutting Concepts
- Patterns
- Patterns can be used to identify cause and effect relationships.
