Support an argument that the gravitational force exerted by Earth on objects is directed down.

Clarification statement: “Down” is a local description of the direction that points toward the center of the spherical Earth.

Assessment boundary: Assessment does not include mathematical representation of gravitational force.

Vocabulary

Terms from the Elementary Science Glossary that come from this standard or from the released Grade 5 Science Test questions that assess it.

From this standard
  • argument
  • center of Earth
  • directed down
  • evidence
  • force
  • gravitational force
  • gravity
  • mathematical representation
  • spherical Earth

Performance Level Descriptions

Every Grade 5 Science Test question on 5-PS2-1 is written to match one of the performance level descriptions (PLDs) below.

Level 1: Identify the argument, based on given evidence, that supports gravitational force exerted by Earth causes objects to be directed downward.
Level 2: Identify the evidence that supports an argument that the gravitational force exerted by Earth causes objects to be directed downward.
Level 3: Support an argument that the gravitational force exerted by Earth on objects is directed down.
Level 4: Using multiple sources of evidence, construct an argument that the gravitational force exerted by Earth causes objects to be directed downward.


Resources

Examples and discussion of resources for the learning, teaching, and assessment of 5-PS2-1.
