Macomb Science Leadership Council
Macomb Science Leadership Council
The purpose of this group is to provide professional learning, support, and
networking opportunities for district-level science curriculum and instruction leaders in
Macomb County.
Our work will center on supporting districts as we plan for the Next Generation Science
Standards.
Something I’ve done to move my district toward NGSS readiness….
Something I’ve done in my own practice to move myself toward NGSS readiness….
Move to your group and discuss your answers:
• K-5 teachers
• 6-12 teachers
• Building

Thriving in times of change
It is unreasonable to ask a professional to
change much more than 10 percent a year,
but it is unprofessional to change by much
less than 10 percent a year.
~Steven Leinwand

Objectives for today
NGSS Update: MDE Update NGSS High School Evidence Statements NGSS Classroom Sample Assessment Tasks
Getting Started in your District: NGSS Readiness Pathways and MISD support for
2015-16 and beyond Crosscutting Concepts
Sharing: Supporting each other as we develop readiness
pathways for our districts
MDE Updates
New standards were presented to the State Board of Education in November as the Michigan Science Standards
Adoption vote has been postponed until May
MISD (along with other ISDs) is moving forward as if they have been adopted
