Evaluate a design or object using criteria to determine if it works as intended.
Standard K.2D in Science helps students understand Evaluate designs and apply knowledge with confidence.
For Grade K, this standard focuses on Evaluate designs and prepares learners for increasingly complex tasks.
Standard K.2D describes the essential skills and understandings for Evaluate designs in Grade K. It clarifies the learning outcomes and what successful work looks like.
Students may rely on procedures without reasoning or mix key terms. Build in quick oral explanations, error analysis, and vocabulary supports tied to K.2D.
Start with concrete or familiar examples, connect to prior knowledge, model a clear process, and provide checks for understanding aligned to K.2D.
It lays groundwork for the next grade by deepening accuracy and flexibility with Evaluate designs, so students can tackle more complex problems later.
