2. Here’s What!- So What?-Now What?: Addressing Three Common Myths About the NGSS Read the Common Myth that you have been given Identify the folks from the room that have your same Common Myth/ Group around a table/ Complete the Table Be ready to share out a quick synopsis of your three columns

3. Learning Intentions: Understand the Engineering Design Process as described in the WA Standards and the NGSS Understand the student expectations for the technological design process in Washington State Standards Understand application item types as assessed on the Measurement of Student Progress

6. What does Engineering Design look like for elementary students?

7. Engineering in the NGSS

8. What NGSS Says About What Students Should Know and Be Able to Do with Engineering Design… Examine the description of Engineering Design at your grade level in the following documents: Read Appendix I from the NGSS (focus on your grade band) Engineering, Technology and Application of Science (ETS) standards from the NGSS (review the standard pages for elementary engineering)

9. What NGSS Says About What Students Should Know and Be Able to Do… DefineDefine Develop Solutions OptimizeOptimize Share ideas from your readings and add student expectations onto the Engineering Design Placemat for your grade band

10. DefineDefine

11. Develop Solutions
