 “Although the intrinsic beauty of science and a fascination with how the world works have driven exploration and discovery for centuries, many of the challenges that face humanity now and in the future—related, for example, to the environment, energy, and health—require social, political, and economic solutions that must be informed deeply by knowledge of the underlying science and engineering.” A Framework for K-12 Science Education (2012, p. 7) todaysmeet.com/kedcnextgenscience

What’s Different about the Next Generation Science Standards?

todaysmeet.com/kedcnextgenscience

Three Dimensions Intertwined

 The NGSS are written as Performance Expectations  NGSS will require contextual application of the three dimensions by students.

 Focus is on how and why as well as what

 Interactive standards online at: www.nextgenscience.org/next-generation science-standards  NSTA http://ngss.nsta.org/  Richard’s Weebly kedcnextgenscience.weebly.com

 Conceptual progressions model with middle school designations.

  Take a few minutes to “play” with interactive standards.

Time to look around inside your binder todaysmeet.com/kedcnextgenscience

Learning Progressions

LS1-C Organization for matter and energy flow in organisms.

5 LS1-1 5 PS3-1 K LS1-1 HS LS1-7 HS LS1-6 HS LS1-5 7 LS1-7 7 LS1-6

   Each district team will be given a topic to investigate. (K-12) Use the progressions chart to summarize the performance expectations through the progressions.

Include a summery of the content from the Disciplinary Core Ideas todaysmeet.com/kedcnextgenscience

2 Plan and conduct an investigation to determine if plants need sunlight and water to grow.

-relationship between sunlight and plant growth Develop a simple model that mimics the function of an animal in dispersing seeds or pollinating plants.

-pollination and seed dispersal of plants by animals   Use one color to highlight what students are doing. (construct an argument, build a mathematical model) Use a second color to highlight the content progressions.

 What are the grade level “gaps” you notice?

todaysmeet.com/kedcnextgenscience

 What does that mean for classroom instruction?

todaysmeet.com/kedcnextgenscience

 What does that mean for classroom assessment?

todaysmeet.com/kedcnextgenscience

 The framework defines curriculum as: “the knowledge and practices in subject matter areas that teachers teach and that students are supposed to learn. A curriculum generally consists of a scope, or breadth of content, in a given subject area and of a sequence of concepts and activities for learning.” (p. 246)  What does that mean for curriculum development? todaysmeet.com/kedcnextgenscience

 Looking at the progression activity what did you notice that was different?  What shifts are we going to need to make? todaysmeet.com/kedcnextgenscience

   Appendix A (Binder): Number off 1-7 and each person will read their numbered shift. Read the information about the shift and write a summary on your graphic organizer.

Share summary of the shift with your table and complete your organizer.

The Governor has stated he intends to allow the standards to go into effect notwithstanding the deficiency in ARRS; LRC will soon issue a letter of deficiency to the Governor, the Governor will then most likely respond that they are in effect notwithstanding the finding of deficiency…; The regulation will be most likely still be referred by LRC to the IJCE and the IJCE may or may not decide to review the regulation (and may/may not also find deficient); If deficient in IJCE, the process repeats and the Governor most likely will issue another notwithstanding letter… General Assembly has the option of passing a bill in the 2014 regular session to override the Governor’s implementation of the regulation.

This is the primary site for the development process and NGSS documents.

 http://concord.org/ngss/?gclid=CI OXmo7E0rkCFS1p7AodwHUAqw The Concord Consortium provides online resources that align with a specific path you create by choosing a component from each of the three dimensions of the NGSS.

 http://learningcenter.nsta.org/ NSTA has compiled multiple resources for teachers as they prepare for implementation of the standards. Teachers can now access web seminars, articles from peer-reviewed journals, NSTA Press books, short courses and face-to-face conference lectures and workshops, all designed to build an understanding of the standards and provide a pathway for putting the standards into classroom instruction. You will find all these resources, and more, online at www.nsta.org/ngss .

 http://www.bozemanscience.com/ Bozemanscience is maintained by Paul Andersen, a science teacher in Bozeman, MT. He has created hundreds of science videos that have been viewed millions of times by students and teachers around the world. All of these videos are accessible from this website.
