"The practices intertwine; they intentionally overlap; and they increase in complexity as students progress K12. All the practices are “language intensive”; they are intended to be discussed, written down, debated and shared. Practices are what drive science instruction with the intent in our lessons to focus on one or two of the practices with the others in the background." -Science and Engineering Practices in Action by Minnesota Dept. of Ed

K-2
Modeling can begin in the earliest grades, with students' models progressing from concrete "pictures" and/or physical scale models (e.g., a toy car) to more abstract representations of relevant relationships in later grades, such as a diagram representing forces on a particular object in a system. (NRC Framework 2012, p. 58)
