Describe how conditions can cause objects, organisms, and systems to change or stay the same.
Teachers can use 2.5G to sequence instruction on Change & constancy and monitor progress toward mastery.
Standard 2.5G in Science helps students understand Change & constancy and apply knowledge with confidence.
Start with concrete or familiar examples, connect to prior knowledge, model a clear process, and provide checks for understanding aligned to 2.5G.
Standard 2.5G describes the essential skills and understandings for Change & constancy in Grade 2. It clarifies the learning outcomes and what successful work looks like.
It lays groundwork for the next grade by deepening accuracy and flexibility with Change & constancy, so students can tackle more complex problems later.
Use short exit tickets and tasks where students explain decisions, show multiple representations, or justify answers—directly aligned to 2.5G.
