Conclusion Writing Claim-Evidence-Reasoning Students should support their own written claims with appropriate justification. Science education should help prepare students for this complex inquiry practice where students seek and provide evidence and reasons for ideas or claims (Driver, Newton and Osborne, 2000).

Directed Note-Taking 21

Directed Note-Taking 22 Present a guiding question to direct student thinking while taking notes. Teacher models note-taking with some examples from the text, and selects the category or categories that the statement supports. Students complete note-taking collaboratively or independently. Handout Guiding Question: Using evidence from the text and video clip, why is it important to consider the cause and effects on society/individuals, when evaluating the roles of the environment and organisms in the climate cycle? Paragraph #/ Source NoteC- CauseE-Effect 1Icebergs around Antartica deposit iron in the water X 1Iron acts like a vitamin, boosting the growth of tiny plants and algae X 2Growing plants and algae are at the bottom of the food chain X 2Gobbled up by slightly bigger critters X

In small groups, take positions and discuss which factor is most significant/impactful (based on the text), and come to consensus. Group Consensus Individual Vote #1 Individual Vote #2 Positive Impact Negative Impact 1)Count number of groups that selected each category. 2)Count number of individuals that selected each category. 3) After hearing discussion and text-based evidence, did you change your mind? New independent vote! (Modification - Four Corners)

Question Generation Purpose: To provide students with a demonstration of question generation and the opportunity for them to interact with the text by generating questions to further deepen their comprehension. 25 Generate questions unanswered from your first text reading. Record your questions on your Student Question Generation paper as you work in pairs or small groups. In your groups, select one question and place on grid at front of room in appropriate category. Question Generation: How icebergs can further help with climate change Paragraph #/ Source Note CauseEffect 1What else are icebergs hiding that we have yet to discover? X 2How does iron act as a vitamin to all these living organisms? X 4What other biological communities are in other icebergs in other parts of the world? X

Final Response After Rereading and Extended Text Discussion Purpose: To provide opportunities for students to interact with the text and with their peers to: – identify text information most significant to the final/essential question. – facilitate complex thinking and deep comprehension of text. After the final discussion, answer the following question on your handout: According to the text and extended text discussion, which factor is most likely the primary concern for scientists when considering climate change? How does scientific research impact society? 26 Department of Mathematics and Science
