Week 3 Journal
Based on the given texts, I created a list of relavant standards to my unit. I am currently teaching a chemistry unit, with a focus on the periodic table, chemical bonds, and chemical equations. Below is the information from the group presentations based on my unit.
Standards being used are NSTA’s Next Generation Science Standards(Science and Engineering Practices)
Developing and Using Models
This standard is asking students to do the following:
Develop and use a model to describe observable phenomena.
Ex: Differences between chemical and physical changes
Ex: Modeling the chemical changes during an observable chemical reaction
Develop a model to describe unobservable mechanisms.
Ex: Model atom and molecule structures
Ex: Model Chemical Bonds
Using Mathematical Representations and Computational Thinking
In plain words, the standard is looking for students to:
Describe/support a scientific conclusion using mathematical representations
Apply mathematical concepts to scientific and engineering problems
Create a problem solving process
How to Access Students Meeting Standards
What evidence would look like:
Student Responses on a Formative Assessment
How to gather evidence:
Student Responses to Quiz Questions
Students given rubric to self- access where they fall in regards to meeting the standard expectations
How many pieces of evidence to evaluate:
1 piece of evidence per standard
