Using Mathematics and Computational Thinking Mathematical and computational thinking at the 3–5 level builds on K–2 experiences and progresses to extending quantitative measurements to a variety of physical properties and using computation and mathematics to analyze data and compare alternative design solutions. Describe and graph quantities such as area and volume to address scientific questions. (5-ESS2-2)
ESS2.C: The Roles of Water in Earth’s Surface Processes Nearly all of Earth’s available water is in the ocean. Most fresh water is in glaciers or underground; only a tiny fraction is in streams, lakes, wetlands, and the atmosphere. (5-ESS2-2)
Scale, Proportion, and Quantity Standard units are used to measure and describe physical quantities such as weight and volume. (5-ESS2-2)
