1 Science Notebooks Research-Based Strategies on how to implement them in today's science classroom by Karen Shepherd

2 How will the things I learned influence my practice? Confirms for me that my present science notebook ideas is an effective assessment tool, researched based, and since it is such an effective tool I will enhance the features. I know that it is crucial to design effective formative assessment that allows the students opportunities to experiment and formulate explanations for their findings. Redesign my lessons so that the students can create, analyze their data, and form conclusions following their experimentations. I know how to use the notebooks to make meaning and help the students develop a deeper understanding of science content from my instructions. This information will encourage me to teach my students in a way where they will to be able to meet the standards; to teach them how to make predictions, think critically and logically, communication their scientific findings in written and verbal forms, and make explanations of the world unknown.

3 How will I apply new knowledge to teaching? Enhance my current method of science notebook use. Include the seven key components in every investigation; prose the question or problem, predictions, develop a plan, using observations create, data, charts, graphs, drawings or illustrations, make claims and evidence, draw conclusion, and write reflections. Make a rubric to include in journals prior to unit. Incorporate a glossary of terms in the back. Write constructive, effective, feedback comments that is appropriate evaluations of the student’s work. Use the book as guide to remind me of the correct format and strategies to using a science notebook.

4 What actions will I take in my schools and beyond? Provide other teachers with professional development opportunities to learn. Share samples of old journals from my classroom. Write a grant to include journals for all of the students in 3 rd – 8 th grade in the building. Provide a professional development course for Science Notebooks.
