Resources:


  • Evidence
    Empirical data or other sources of support (e.g., mathematical proofs) for a claim; may be selected, presented, and evaluated differently by different audiences and in different subject areas according to the norms of disciplinary literacy. See Text Types and Purposes for Argument.
  • Informational text
    In this document, nonfiction in narrative or non-narrative form.
  • Literary text

Successor Standards:

  • W.5.9
    Draw evidence from literary or informational texts to support analysis, reflection, and research, applying one or more grade 5 standards for Reading Literature or Reading Informational Text as needed.

Same Level Standards:

  • 4.ESS.1.1
    Use evidence from a given landscape that includes simple landforms and rock layers to support a claim about the role of erosion or deposition in the formation of the landscape over long periods of time. Clarification Statements: Examples of evidence and claims could include rock layers with shell fossils above rock layers with plant fossils and no shells, indicating a change from deposition on land to deposition in water over time; and a canyon with rock layers in the walls and a river in the bottom, indicating that a river eroded the rock over time. Examples of simple landforms can include valleys, hills, mountains, plains, and canyons. Focus should be on relative time. State Assessment Boundary: Specific details of the mechanisms of rock formation or specific rock formations and layers are not expected in state assessment.
  • 4.ESS.3.1
    Obtain information to describe that energy and fuels humans use are derived from natural resources and that some energy and fuel sources are renewable and some are not. Clarification Statements: Examples of renewable energy resources could include wind energy, water behind dams, tides, and sunlight. Non-renewable energy resources are fossil fuels and nuclear materials.
  • 4.PS.3.1
    Use evidence to construct an explanation relating the speed of an object to the energy of that object. State Assessment Boundaries: State assessment will be limited to analysis of kinetic energy. Accounting for mass, quantitative measures of changes in the speed of an object, or any precise or quantitative definition of energy is not expected in state assessment.
