4. NGSS Pretest Using Socrative Please go to the following website: www.socrative.com Click on the green Student Log In button Enter this room number: 186921

5. Today’s Objectives Participants will: -Be able to read and interpret pages of the NGSS -Identify the three dimensions of the NGSS -Analyze different Performance Expectations of the NGSS -Explore the information contained within each appendix of the NGSS

6. Rate Your Familiarity with NGSS Choose one of the following that best describes your familiarity with the NGSS and explain your choice: 1)I know there are new science standards 2)Know a little about them/I know they have different colored sections on the paper 3)Read some of the framework/standards 4)I have a real deep understanding of standards their meaning and the content taught 5)I could lead a PD or group planning on the standards. P-12 MSOU of PIMSER

7. Which one are you?

8.  It has been nearly 15 years since the National Research Council and the American Association for Advancement in Science produced the documents on which most state standards are based.

9. The new standards are going to get children ready for a STEM workforce by integrating the three dimensions of the framework. Current Standards are out of date - Advances in science & technology - Advances in understanding of learning

13. NGSS Framework THREE DIMENSIONS: 1. Practices 2. Crosscutting Concepts 3. Disciplinary Core Ideas

14. Performance Expectations Integrate practices, core ideas and Crosscutting Concepts Statements of what is to be assessed NOT lesson plans State what students should be able to do at the end of instruction Organized by Topic and DCI

15. What’s Different about the Next Generation Science Standards? Where can I find out?

16. NGSS website: www.nextgenscience.org www.nextgenscience.org There is also a FREE NGSS App

17. Three Dimensions Intertwined  The NGSS are written as Performance Expectations  NGSS will require contextual application of the three dimensions by students.  Focus is on how and why as well as what Look at the handout that has the three dimensions

18. Science and Engineering Practices 1. Asking questions (science) and defining problems (engineering) 2. Developing and using models 3.Planning and carrying out investigations 4.Analyzing and interpreting data 5. Using mathematics and computational thinking 6. Constructing explanations (science) and designing solutions (engineering) 7. Engaging in argument from evidence 8. Obtaining, evaluating, and communicating information

19. Crosscutting Concepts 1.Patterns 2.Cause and effect 3.Scale, proportion, and quantity 4.Systems and system models 5.Energy and matter 6.Structure and function 7.Stability and change

20. 44 Total Disciplinary Core Ideas (DCI) 1. Physical 2. Life 3. Earth and Space 4. Engineering, Technology and the Applications of Science

21. Physical Sciences PS 1: Matter and Its Interactions PS 2: Motion and Stability PS 3: Energy PS 4: Waves and Their Applications

22. Life Sciences LS 1: From Molecules to Organisms: Structures and Processes LS 2: Ecosystems: Interactions, Energy, and Dynamics LS 3: Heredity: Inheritance and Variation of Traits LS 4: Biological Evolution: Unity and Diversity

23. Earth and Space Sciences ESS 1: Earth’s Place in the Universe ESS 2: Earth Systems ESS 3: Earth and Human Activity

24. Engineering, Technology and Applications of Sciences ETS 1: Engineering Design ETS 2: Links Among Engineering, Technology, Science and Society

25. Lots of work completed, underway, and left to do InstructionCurricula Assessments Teacher Development

26. How do I read this document?

27. Use the activity handout and the information from the next few slides to demonstrate how the NGSS is presented within the Framework. Open to any content page within the KCAS for Science What’s In The Box? Activity

28. Performance Expectations (What is assessed)

29. Grade Level. Topic Students who demonstrate understanding can: Code – represents the specific Performance Expectations written in black. After each Performance Expectation it will be followed by two statements in red: Clarification Statement Assessment Boundary

30. Foundation Box

31. The THREE DIMENSIONS: The Foundation Box (in the middle) Blue Science and Engineering Practices Orange Disciplinary Core Ideas Green Crosscutting Concepts

32. Connection Box

33. The Connection Box (at the bottom) Connections to other DCIs in this grade-band Articulation to DCIs across grade-bands Common Core State Standards Connections: ELE/Literacy Mathematics

35. 35

36. Take a look at the NGSS website: www.nextgenscience.org www.nextgenscience.org Take a few minutes to examine the three dimensions of the framework. Look through each appendix Are there any questions about the website or anything we have discussed so far?

37. Shifts in the NGSS 1.Experiences in The Real World 2.Performance Expectations not Curriculum 3.Build Coherently 4.Deeper understanding and Application of content 5.Integration of Science and Technology 6.College, Career and Citizenship 7.Aligned with ELA and Math (Venn Diagram) Appendix A Conceptual Shifts

38. NGSS Scavenger Hunt Work with the people at your table to complete the front side of the handout The back side is a take home assignment that is used with the K – 12 Progression sheet

39. Speed Bumps on The Road to NGSS Discuss with your group what we have done so far today and write down what you think the speed bumps will be on the back of your previous activity sheet.

40. Sean Elkins’ TED TALK http://mediaportal.education.ky.gov/next- generation-schools-and- districts/2013/09/speed-bumps-on-the-road- to-ngss/ http://mediaportal.education.ky.gov/next- generation-schools-and- districts/2013/09/speed-bumps-on-the-road- to-ngss/

41. Can you remember all the speed bumps Sean mentioned?

42. Exploring The Performance Expectations This activity will explore the NGSS and determine how the 3 dimensions are blended within each Performance Expectation.
