  1. Science Standards Update Mary Loesing, Ed.D. – Connetquot – mloesing@ccsdli.org

  2. Standards Adoption/Implementation Timeline We are here!!

  3. Science Assessment Timeline

  4. Pedagogical Shifts • THREE DIMENSIONAL LEARNING • Disciplinary Core Ideas – the content • Science and Engineering Practices – how science is done • Cross Cutting Concepts – connects science disciplines and connects science to other disciplines

  5. Practices and Concepts

  6. What will NYSSLS Classrooms Look Like

  7. Determine a Sequence

  8. Things to Consider

  9. Alignment to Standards • How do you know if your lessons are aligned to the standards? • Use resources that have been vetted by organizations such as Achieve • Look for the NGSS badge: • Use a screening tool such as the EQuIP Rubric or the 3-Dimensional Lesson Screening Tool from Paul Andersen. • EdReports used teams of teachers to review curriculum to determine its degree of alignment to the standards. • Several organizations such as OpenSciEd are making their materials available free of charge through a Creative Commons License.

  10. Students Need To Be Able To:

  11. Storylines • Center a unit around an anchoring phenomena • Have students write down as many questions as they can think of about the phenomena • Create a Driving Question Board • Determine what investigations could be done to answer the questions which will lead to an explanation of the phenomena. • Develop daily lessons, based on the investigations, that will help students to develop the skills to figure out the phenomena • Nextgenstorylines • Illinois Science Teachers Storylining Group

  12. Assessments • Have students focus on providing the reasoning behind their answers • Expose students to a new scenario accompanied by data, graphs, diagrams, pictures and let them use the skills from the unit to answer questions and make sense of what they are seeing. Source of data: Data Nuggets • Resources: • The Wonder of Science • Stanford NGSS Assessment Project (SNAP) • Achieve Task Annotation Project in Science • Example: John’s Experiment Heating Sand
