Good Science Instruction Review the Year at Glance. What is the purpose of the topic? Know your targeted benchmark and specific objectives….
9
Good Science Instruction: Unwrapping a Benchmark 1.Select the benchmark. 2.Circle the VERBS (action words) They represent the skills, what students need to do. 3.Underline the important NOUNS (a person, place, or thing ). They represent the concepts students need to know. 4.Create a graphic organizer (bulleted list, outline, concept map, T-chart, etc.) to organize the concepts and skills. Division of Academics - Department of Science

Unwrapping the Benchmark Big Idea 10: Forms of Energy Grade 5 Topic 8 SC.5.P.10.1 Investigate and describe some basic forms of energy, including light, heat, sound, electrical, chemical, and mechanical. (Level 2: Basic Application of Skills & Concepts) SC.5.P.10.2 Investigate and explain that energy has the ability to cause motion or create change. (Level 3: Strategic Thinking & Complex Reasoning ) Department of Mathematics and Science Verbs: (skills) Nouns: (concepts)
11
Unwrapping the Benchmark Big Idea 10: Forms of Energy Grade 5 Topic 9 SC.5.P.10.3 Investigate and explain that electrical energy can be transformed into heat, light, and sound energy, as well as the energy of motion. SC.5.P.10.4 Investigate and explain that an electrically-charged object can attract an uncharged object and can either attract or repel another charged object without any contact between the objects. Cognitive Complexity: LEVEL Level 3: Strategic Thinking & Complex Reasoning Department of Mathematics and Science Verbs: (skills) Nouns: (concepts)
12
Unwrapping the Benchmark Big Idea 11 Grade 5 Topic 9 SC.5.P.11.1 Investigate and illustrate the fact that the flow of electricity requires a closed circuit (a complete loop). SC.5.P.11.2 Identify and classify materials that conduct electricity and materials that do not. Cognitive Complexity: LEVEL Level 2: Basic Application of Skills & Concepts Department of Mathematics and Science Verbs: (skills) Nouns: (concepts)
13
Let’s Look again at Grade 5 Pacing Guide Topic 1.What is the essential content listed? 2.How does it compare to and support the nouns (concepts) identified in the unwrapping? 3.Are the verbs identified in the unwrapping in the objectives? 4.How are the verbs (skills) supported? 5.How do the content and skills compare to what is listed in the Item Specifications? 6.What tools and units will be used? 7.What objectives will demonstrate mastery of the concepts? (performance skills ) 8.What vocabulary needs to be understood to master the concepts? Division of Academics - Department of Science
14
Good Science Instruction: Develop Critical Thinking Skills Develop Essential Questions and other Higher-Order Thinking questions using explicit-reflective instruction to enhance student thinking that includes the teacher identifying the Level of Complexity and students: - Asking questions about topic being taught - Learning to make systematic observations and inferences in order to formulate answers based on evidence and reasoning (Conclusion) - Applying models to formulate solutions to questions - Communicating both verbally and in writing

23
When Can a CER be Used? Use it after an experiment to write the conclusion. Use it to engage in structured argumentation to explain a scientific concept. Use it to justify an answer choice for an FCAT type question that includes evidence in the scenario and/or data table and sometimes reasoning also in the scenario.
24
Example of FCAT type question that includes evidence in the data table and reasoning in the scenario “A CER Works” Sample FCAT 2.0 Science Question A radiometer is a device with fins that spin when light energy strikes them. A picture of a radiometer is shown below. As part of an experiment, a light source was placed 50 centimeters (cm) from a radiometer. The light source gave off four different-colored lights for 30 seconds (s) each. After each color of light was turned off, the amount of time the fins on the radiometer spun was recorded. The results are shown in the table below. Which color of light provided the greatest amount of light energy according to the data in the table? F. red G. green H. blue I. white claim reasoning evidence

Big Idea 13: Forces and Changes in Motion 1. Will and Tammy are moving a dresser. They are arguing about which direction to move it. Will is pushing the dresser with a force of 5 newtons towards Tammy. Tammy is pushing the dresser towards Will with a force of 10 newtons. What happens to the dresser? A.The dresser does not move. B.The dresser moves towards Will. C.The dresser moves towards Tammy. D.The dresser moves towards Tammy, then back towards Will.

Try Another Test Taking Strategy for Multiple Choice Questions: PART 1: What is the question all about? Read the Question First Underline key words within the Question Read the scenario or background information and/or analyze the diagrams PART 2: Process of Elimination Read the Answer Choices Cross out two of the choices that you know are 100% wrong. Re-Read the two remaining choices and ask yourself which one of the two choices is wrong? “Distracters” – Don’t be distracted!
