Analyze and interpret data from fossils to provide evidence of the organisms and the environments in which they lived long ago.
Clarification statement: Examples of data could include type, size, and distributions of fossil organisms. Examples of fossils and environments could include marine fossils found on dry land, tropical plant fossils found in Arctic areas, and fossils of extinct organisms.
Assessment boundary: Assessment does not include identification of specific fossils or present plants and animals. Assessment is limited to major fossil types and relative ages.

Performance Level Descriptions
Every Grade 5 Science Test question on 3-LS4-1 is written to match one of the performance level descriptions (PLDs) below.
Level 1: Using data from fossils and given evidence about organism, identify the environments in which they lived long ago.
Level 2: Using data from fossils, identify the given evidence of the organism that supports the environments in which they lived long ago.
Level 3: Analyze and interpret data from fossils to provide evidence of the organisms and the environments in which they lived long ago.
Level 4: Use scientific reasoning to analyze and interpret data from fossils to provide evidence of the organisms and the environments in which they lived and construct an explanation to support this phenomenon.
Resources
Examples and discussion of resources for the learning, teaching, and assessment of 3-LS4-1.
