REVIEW

I will understand how to translate Kentucky’s Core Academic Standards for Science into clear learning targets in order to design high quality formative and summative assessments and to plan/select rigorous and congruent learning experiences.

Network Target

During this part of the day, I will deepen my understanding of the process of deconstructing standards into knowledge, reasoning, performance skill and product learning targets that collectively address the intended learning of the standard.

Goal for this part …

Where Am I Going?

Provide students with

clear and understandable

vision of the learning target

R. Stiggins, J. Arter, J. Chappuis, & S. Chappius (2006) Classroom Assessment for Student Learning. ETS. Portland, OR.

• If the learning is unclear to you then – You will not be able to make it clear to students. – It will be unclear what to teach and how to assess.– It could be interpreted different ways that could lead to

significantly different learning experiences.• Create learning targets that are inherent to the intent of

the standard.• Sometimes the benchmark or standard is stated in a

manner that is clear and may only need to be categorized to determine which method should be used to assess the intended learning.

What knowledge or understanding is required to become competent on this standard?

What reasoning (if any) is required to be competent on this standard?

What performance skills (if any) are required to demonstrate competence on thisstandard?

What product competencies (if any) are required by this standard?

Remember, not all standards have all of these as underpinnings and some standards may only need to be ‘classified’ to assist with assessing students’ learning.

What did we learn?Homework review

• Take a post it note and summarize your “practice” and the activity that you did to incorporate this within your classroom.

• Share with your table group • Determine 1 that you would like to share to

the whole group. • Place your post it note on the practice title for

others to view

Puff Mobile:Scenario:

• Land sailing is motion across land in a wheeled vehicle powered by wind through the use of a sail.

• You and your partner are considering designing a craft to participate in the 2013 World Championship land sailing race in Patagonia, Argentina in order to promote the skills of your engineering design company

Materials:• 3 straws

• 4 life savers

• 1 piece of paper

• 2 paper clips

• masking tape

• scissors

Puff Mobile:

Scenario:Sam is stuck on a boat, and how he got there is

not important, but Sam can’t swim. To get to shore sam needs to retrieve a life jacket from under the boat so that he can float to shore.

Saving Sam

Your groups job is to save Sam by retrieving the life jacket and putting it on his waist. Unfortunately, the only tools you can use to accomplish this task are paperclips. You cannot touch Sam, the boat, or the life preserver with your bare hands. You cannot hook Sam as it will harm him.

Your Mission:

Literacy Across the curriculum

Literacy Design Collaborative LDC

THE LITERACY DESIGN COLLABORATIVE IS A NETWORK OF TEACHERS AND PARTNERS "BUILDING OUT A TEMPLATE-BASED APPROACH TO THE LITERACY DEMANDS OF COLLEGE AND THE WORKPLACE, AS DEFINED BY THE COMMON CORE STATE STANDARDS."

(As a SCIENCE teacher, this is where you are probably thinking….. Are you serious? I really cannot handle doing this right now, I cannot integrate literacy standards when I do not have a handle on the new Common Core……

LDC is not a lesson plan library, it's a framework that helps

teachers across the curriculum promote standards-based literacy

This is an exercise in adding informational text As background to your lesson…

And employing common core writing techniques to enhance student learning in the science classroom

Compare and contrast how scientific methods and

engineering designs are similar. Explain what

Homework Review!!!!!!!!!

• Bring one lesson in which you have included the practice you chose to ‘work” with.

• Explain what practices you are currently doing in your classroom and the lesson based on the information we have discussed………..
