Finalize Mission
• Champion High School prepares students for successful transitions into post-secondary education and career opportunities by providing an intimate, academically demanding, and competency-based learning environment; personalized support; and a range of college, career, and community experiences.
Discussion of Reading
Definition of Competency
Competencies at BDEA• Clearly written and broadly
defined learning outcomes• Enduring understandings
and skills students need in a specific discipline
• Relevant and necessary for future learning
Competencies at DP• Critical thinking skills
essential in a discipline• Broadly defined habits and
approaches to a subject
Example of Competency
Competencies at BDEA• EXAMPLE: Understand that
the cell is the smallest unit that can perform life’s functions.
MA Science Frameworks Central Concept• Cells have specific
structures and functions that make them distinctive. Processes in a cell can be classified broadly as growth, maintenance, and reproduction.
Example of Competency
Competencies at BDEA• EXAMPLE: Demonstrate an
understanding of linear equations.
MA Anchor Standard• Analyze and solve linear
equations and pairs of simultaneous linear equations.
Definition of Benchmark
Benchmarks at BDEA• Measurable learning
objectives by which a student demonstrates competency
Example of BenchmarkBenchmarks at BDEA
Understand that the cell is the smallest unit that can perform life’s functions1. Relate cell organelles to their functions2. Explain how parts of the cell work
together to perform life’s functions3. Explain the differences between plant
cells and animal cells4. Explain the differences between
eukaryotic cells and prokaryotic cells5. Compare and contrast a virus and a cell 6. Describe the cell cycle and the process
of mitosis. Explain the role of mitosis in the production of new cells
7. Explain the role of meiosis in the production of sex cells.
MA Frameworks “Content Standards”2.1 Relate cell parts/organelles (plasma
membrane, nuclear envelope, nucleus, nucleolus, cytoplasm, mitochondrion, endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi apparatus, lysosome, ribosome, vacuole, cell wall, chloroplast, cytoskeleton, centriole, cilium, flagellum, pseudopod) to their functions. Explain the role of cell membranes as a highly selective barrier (diffusion, osmosis, facilitated diffusion, active transport).
2.2 Compare and contrast, at the cellular level, the general structures and degrees of complexity of prokaryotes and eukaryotes.
Example of Benchmark
Benchmarks at BDEA1. Calculate slope2. Identify linear relationships3. Graph linear equations using
appropriate scale, dependent and independent variables, and selected points
4. Represent linear relationships using tables, graphs, and equations
5. Recognize and use the slope intercept form of an equation
6. Convert between slope intercept and standard form of an equation
Champion’s Prioritized StandardsA-CED Create equations that describe numbers or relationships.
1. Create equations and inequalities in one variable and use them to solve problems. Include equations arising from linear and quadratic functions, and simple rational and exponential functions.
8.EE Understand the connections between proportional relationships, lines, and linear equations.
5. Graph proportional relationships, interpreting the unit rate as the slope of the graph. Compare two different proportional relationships represented in different ways. For example, compare a distance-time graph to a distance-time equation to determine which of two moving objects has greater speed.
A-CED Create equations that describe numbers or relationships.
2. Create equations in two or more variables to represent relationships between quantities; graph equations on coordinate axes with labels and scales.
