Evaluate competing design solutions for maintaining biodiversity and protecting ecosystem stability.
Clarification statement: Examples of ecosystem protections could include water purification, waste management, nutrient recycling, prevention of soil erosion, and eradication of invasive species. Examples of design solution constraints could include scientific, economic, and social considerations.
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 five levels.
Resources
Examples and discussion of resources for the learning, teaching, and assessment of MS-LS2-5.

Assessment
What assessment of MS-LS2-5 might look like on a NY state exam.

NGSS Dimensions
Performance expectation MS-LS2-5 was developed using the following elements from the NRC document A Framework for K-12 Science Education:
Connections to Other Standards
MS-LS2-5 connections to ELA, math, and other science standards as outlined by the NYS Education Department:
