9. Science Demo Lesson Pre-lesson info: Established pairs Established whiteboard routine Protocol for SSI – Think time – Ask question – Language expectation (e.g., academic vocab; language frame; complete sentence) – Conservative time limit – Random, non-voluntary response

10. Let’s Begin… LEARNING OBJECTIVES: The student will Identify words/phrases that indicate a cause- effect relationship Explain the cause-effect relationship of heat and thermal energy

11. Graphic Representation of Cause-Effect Ms. B’s “I do” Ms. B’s most recent photo

12. White Boards and Wandering Language Frame: My graphic represents a cause-effect relationship because ____________ causes the effect of ______________.

13. Cause-Effect Relationship of Heat and Thermal Energy Think-Aloud (p.90)… “I do” Listen for the words/phrases in the text that indicate cause- effect Relationship.

14. Charting Cause-Effect Words 1.Individually chart which words you heard me identify as indicating a cause-effect relationship between heat and thermal energy. 2.1…2…3…Show me.

15. Partner Collaboration 1.Compare your whiteboard answers to those of your designated partner. 2.Add any additional words/phrases you want after partner collaboration.

16. Cause-Effect Words/Phrases – “We do together” Language Frame: I chose ____________________________ as text evidence of a cause/effect relationship because__________________.
