SLIDE 3
Quick Write
What would a typical science extended
lesson/learning sequence look like in your classroom?
SLIDE 4
Shifting the Frame From Current Practice to NGSS NGSS
Talk to your “elbow partner” about what
you think a typical NGSS science learning sequence might include.
SLIDE 5
Linking the Tool with this Learning Sequence
Design the Instructional Unit using the Tool (CF, PQP
Chart and CCC)
Select a PE (e.g., 2-PS1-1; 2-PS1-2; 5-PS1-3; MS-PS1-3; HS-PS1-1; HS-PS2-6; K-5
ETS1 1-3; MS and HS ETS1 1-4) and corresponding DCIs (e.g., PS1.A)
from the CF.
Use the PQP chart to identify SEPs Design learning experiences (e.g., observe various
phenomena, ask questions, conduct research, analyze data, incorporate CCSS) and arrange in teaching sequence.
SLIDE 6
Observe the Phenomena
Observe the phenomena Sketch what you observed and describe
what you think is happening.
Brainstorm questions about the
phenomena
SLIDE 7
Share Your Thinking
What observations did you make? What did you sketch? What did you
describe?
What questions were generated?
What questions do you have about
how the color spreads?
SLIDE 8
Independent Research
Read the text about chromatography.
Star passages that define chromatography Underline passages that explain how
chromatography works.
Place a question mark next to passages you
did not understand.
SLIDE 9
Connecting Text to the Exploration
With your partner :
Answer the text dependent question: What is
chromatography? Write in your notebook.
Discuss the text dependent question: How does
chromatography work?
Return to your sketch/description and discuss
how the text would help to refine what you described about the color drop?
Discuss how chromatography is used. Write in
your notebook.

Lunch Break
SLIDE 11
Grade Span Grouping
Please sit in grade level span group:
K-2 Teachers 3-5 Teachers 6-12 Teachers
SLIDE 12
Problem, Criteria and Constraints
Find the best method for separating pigments using the design criteria:
Deep Color Intensity Complete Separation of pigments. Cost Effective (grades 3-12).
Constraints:
- Use only the materials provided
- You have 30 minutes
SLIDE 13
Engaging in the Problem
Read the scenario for your grade level and
discuss it with your team.
Read the Procedure on the handout. As a group, determine your procedure and
develop your protocol or plan to solve your problem.
Test your design Be prepared to share and support your results
SLIDE 14
Claims and Evidence
Prepare a chart/poster that demonstrates
your solution/findings.
What did you do, and what did you discover? Present your claims with supporting
evidence.
- What is the best method for separating
these pigments and why?
SLIDE 15
Debrief #1: SEPs
With your table groups, discuss which science and engineering practices you used?
SLIDE 16
Science and Engineering Practices
- 1. Asking questions and
defining problems
- 2. Developing and using
models
- 3. Planning and carrying
- ut investigations
- 4. Analyzing and
interpreting data
- 5. Using mathematics and
computational thinking
- 6. Developing
explanations and designing solutions 7. Engaging in argument from evidence 8. Obtaining, evaluating, and communicating information
SLIDE 17
Debrief #2: The Nexus of Science and Engineering
With a partner, scan H5 and discuss:
- What do you notice as you look across
the physical science standards?
- What do you notice as you look across
the engineering standards?
- What do you notice about the standards
within a grade span?
- What do you notice about all of the
standards K-12?
SLIDE 18
Based on the Experience and the Scan of the Standards…
How did the science support the
engineering challenge?
How did the engineering challenge
extend the science
What did you gain by doing both?
SLIDE 19
Shifting Frames
How did this experience compare to what
you thought an NGSS lesson might look like?
How is NGSS different? What implications
does this have on science instruction?
How can connecting to CCSS deepen
learning?
