Department of Mathematics and Science General information Language Arts Florida Standards (LAFS) and Mathematics Florida Standards (MAFS) aligned in District Pacing Guides Achievement Level Descriptors for FCAT 2.0 Science and Biology EOC Next Generation Science Standards – Final version released (adoption process has not started yet) NAEP 2012 – students have problems with providing evidence and reasoning for claims Insights: Benchmark instruction with fidelity and rigor + Students exposed to application of concepts (inquiry, assessments) = Success Department of Mathematics and Science
Department of Mathematics and Science Session Outcomes Participants will be able to: Identify how the Florida Standards are correlated to the Middle School Science Next Generation Sunshine State Standards (NGSSS) and can be used to increase rigor of instruction. Incorporate M-DCPS physical science instructional resources to increase the depth of science teaching and learning. Plan for rigorous instruction using 5E Model Department of Mathematics and Science

Department of Mathematics and Science Introduce the FL Standards- “What should FL Standards look like in a Science Classroom?” Introduce the FL Standards- “Can you use FL Standards in a Science Classroom?” (Sweep the room for open responses) Have participants, in groups, use the question on the slide to generate a free-form map on chart paper. As the session progresses, reference the maps and encourage participants to make adjustments to their maps. Department of Mathematics and Science
Department of Mathematics and Science Today’s Benchmarks SC.7.P.11.4: Observe and describe that heat flows in predictable ways, moving from warmer objects to cooler ones until they reach the same temperature. SC.7.P.11.1: Recognize that adding heat to or removing heat from a system may result in a temperature change and possibly a change of state. SC.7.P.11.2: Investigate and describe the transformation of energy from one form to another. SC.7.P.11.3: Cite evidence to explain that energy cannot be created nor destroyed, only changed from one form to another. SC.7.P.10.2: Observe and explain that light can be reflected, refracted, and/or absorbed. Assessed as SC.7.P.10.3 SC.7.P.10.3: Recognize that light waves, sound waves, and other waves move at different speeds in different materials. (AA) Department of Mathematics and Science

Department of Mathematics and Science Heat Transfer SC.7.P.11.4: Observe and describe that heat flows in predictable ways, moving from warmer objects to cooler ones until they reach the same temperature. SC.7.P.11.1: Recognize that adding heat to or removing heat from a system may result in a temperature change and possibly a change of state. LAFS.68.WHST.1.1: Write arguments focused on discipline-specific content. Introduce claim(s) about a topic or issue, acknowledge and distinguish the claim(s) from alternate or opposing claims, and organize the reasons and evidence logically. Support claim(s) with logical reasoning and relevant, accurate data and evidence that demonstrate an understanding of the topic or text, using credible sources. Use words, phrases, and clauses to create cohesion and clarify the relationships among claim(s), counterclaims, reasons, and evidence. Establish and maintain a formal style. Provide a concluding statement or section that follows from and supports the argument presented Department of Mathematics and Science

Conclusion Writing -Claim-Evidence-Reasoning Students should support their own written claims with appropriate justification. Science education should help prepare students for this complex inquiry practice where students seek and provide evidence and reasons for ideas or claims (Driver, Newton and Osborne, 2000).

Energy Transformations SC.7.P.11.2: Investigate and describe the transformation of energy from one form to another. SC.7.P.11.3: Cite evidence to explain that energy cannot be created nor destroyed, only changed from one form to another. LAFS.68.RST.3.9: Compare and contrast the information gained from experiments, simulations, video, or multimedia sources with that gained from reading a text on the same topic.

Department of Mathematics and Science Microlabs Rounds using FL standards document: (1 minute per question, per person) What are Florida Standards and how are they infused into science instruction? What types of science activities lend themselves to Florida standards infusion? What kind of student product(s) is evidence of Florida standards through science? Florida Standards Review: 1. From the discussion in your micro-labs, brainstorm what activities you see in science classrooms that fulfill the specific Florida standards posted. -Write these activities on yellow sticky notes in your group (one per note) 2. Now brainstorm activities that are not currently seen in science classrooms but that can be done to fulfill the specific Florida standards posted. -Write these activities on pink sticky notes in your group (one per note) Whole Group Reflection: “Which FL standards are addressed more in science instruction than others?” Reference the question from the beginning of the session (“What should FL Standards look like in a Science Classroom?”) and concept maps developed earlier in the session.
