Science and Technology/Engineering | Grade : 5

Discipline - Earth and Space Sciences

Core Idea - Earth's Place in the Universe

[5.ESS.1.1] - Use observations, first-hand and from various media, to argue that the Sun is a star that appears larger and brighter than other stars because it is closer to Earth. State Assessment Boundary: Other factors that affect apparent brightness (such as stellar masses, age, or stage) are not expected in state assessment.
