Discipline-Specific Literacy Module 3 Secondary Science 1

Desired Outcomes Become familiar with the Common Core State Standards (CCSS) for literacy in science and how they are organized Provide a rationale as to why teachers need to address the CCSS for literacy in science Describe some ways that teachers can address the CCSS for literacy in science

Literacy is the ability to understand and use language and images to acquire knowledge, communicate and think critically in all content and contexts. Literacy for Learning, Hawaii State Dept. of Education, April 2009 Literacy Defined

Key Design Considerations for Common Core Standards An integrated model of literacy Research and media skills blended into the standards as a whole Shared responsibility for students literacy development Literacy English Technical Subjects History/ Social Studies Science

Why Literacy in Science? College and Career Ready Gap between college and high school texts about 4 grade levels 8 th grade texts = former 5 th grade texts 12 th grade texts = former 7 th grade texts (compared to 40 years ago) Susan Pimentals Transitioning to the Common Core State Standards 7/28/11 Presentation at OCISS

Science + Literacy Do you use any of these? Science Talks/Discussions Science Notebooks Reading Expository Text Formal Scientific Reports Journal

Why Science Literacy Standards? Scientific texts pose specialized challenges to inexperienced and struggling readers. --Reading in the Disciplines: The Challenges of Adolescent Literacy, Carol D. Lee and Anika Spratley 8

Teaching Features Text Features LiteraryInformational Title Chapter Index (for Chapter Books) Illustrations Bold Print Continuous Text Paragraphing Dialogue Title Table of Contents Index* Photos Captions Diagrams Glossary Date Line (periodicals) Bold Print Headings Sub-titles *The more readers build up knowledge about these elements and underlying structures, the better they can use them as sources of information. 9

Scientific Texts include: Abstracts Section Headings Figures Tables Diagrams Maps Drawings Photographs Reference Lists Endnotes 11

Question: How can we support our students? Answer: Discipline Specific Literacy More sophisticated and specific kinds of literacy support is necessary Requires a particular type of reading –--Reading in the Disciplines: The Challenges of Adolescent Literacy, Carol D. Lee and Anika Spratley 12

How do the following work together to support readers? Standards Teacher Instruction Assessments 13

Standards: Activity- match the ELA anchor standard with the Literacy in science standards 14

6-8 Instruction: Article 15

Standard 9, Grades Compare and contrast the information gained from experiments, simulations, videos, or multimedia sources with that gained from reading a text on the same topic. 16

Standard 9, Grades The Task: Watch a video about the earths crust and tectonic plates, then read the article Earths Big Breakup. – Compare and contrast the amount and type of information conveyed by each source. – Explain how each helps to develop understanding of plate tectonics. 17

Double Bubble Organizer 18 VideoArticle

Video 19

Standard 2, Grades Determine the central ideas or conclusions of a text; trace the text explanation or depiction of a complex process, phenomenon, or concept; provide an accurate summary of the text. 20

Standard 2, Grades The Task: Provide an accurate summary of the article, Earths big breakup. Article Article The Process: Read the article, complete the graphic organizer to write an accurate summary 21

22

Reading Standards for Literacy in Science and Technical Subjects Grades 6-8Grades 9-10 Grades Determine the central ideas or conclusions of a text; provide an accurate summary of the text distinct from prior knowledge or opinions. 2. Determine the central ideas or conclusions of a text; trace the texts explanation or depiction of a complex process, phenomenon, or concept; provide an accurate summary of the text. 2. Determine the central ideas or conclusions of a text; summarize complex concepts, processes, or information presented in a text by paraphrasing them in simpler but still accurate terms.

Standard 6, Grades Analyze the author's purpose in providing an explanation, describing a procedure, or discussing an experiment in a text, identifying important issues that remain unresolved 24

Standard 6, Grades The Task: To analyze the Authors Purpose in providing an explanation and to identify important issues that remain unresolved. The Process Read the article, Intraplate Quakes Signal Tectonic Breakup Article. Article Complete graphic organizer on Authors Purpose 25

26

Assessment Examples Students analyze the concept of mass based on their close reading of Gordon Kanes The Mysteries of Mass and cite specific textual evidence from the text to answer the question of why elementary particles have mass at all. Students explain important distinctions the author makes regarding the Higgs Field and the Higgs Boson and their relationship to the concept of mass. [RST.11–12.1] 27

SBAC Performance Task (Link)(Link) Write an argumentative report that recommends the position that your congresswoman should take on the plan to build a nuclear power plant in your state. Support your claim with evidence from the Internet sources you have read and viewed. You do not need to use all the sources, only the ones that most effectively and credibly support your position and your consideration of the opposing point of view. 28

Grade 8 Sample- NYCDOE Write an argumentative essay in which you introduce a claim arguing for or against the United States investing money on renewable energy resources. Your essay should consider how the choice between investing in either renewable energy or non-renewable energy resources will affect both the environment and the economy. Depending on whether or not you think the United States should continue investing money in renewable resources, acknowledge and distinguish the opposing claim, and organize the reasons and evidence logically. Support your claim with clear reasons and cite relevant textual evidence from at least three articles read or discussed during this unit. Include domain-specific vocabulary and maintain a formal style. 29

Literacy Design Collaborative (LDC) The Literacy Design Collaborative [LDC] offers a fresh approach to incorporating literacy into middle and high school content areas. Designed to make literacy instruction the foundation of the core subjects, LDC allows teachers to build content on top of a coherent approach to literacy. 30

Redefining Inquiry in Science Being science literate entails being able to read and understand a variety of science texts to form valid conclusions and participate in meaningful conversations [discussion] about science. In Zmach et al., , p
