  1. Middle Level Science Content Carbon Lehigh Intermediate Unit November 2012

  2. Number of Districts • Content Networking Group • Fifth Grade – 9 • Sixth Grade – 12 • Seventh Grade – 13 • Eighth Grade – 13

  3. Fifth Grade • Selected Topics from: • Earth & Space, Physical • Life, Physical, Earth • Plants, Light & Sound, Astronomy • Life, Physical, Earth & Space, Ecology • Life, Earth & Space, Ecology • Physical • Random • Motion & Design K’nex Kit • Foss Kits

  4. Sixth Grade • Selected Topics from • Physical • Life, Physical, Earth • Earth, Physics • Life, Chem • Life • Life, Physics • Ecology, Earth • FOSS Kits • Earth & Space • Earth

  5. Seventh Grade • Earth • Life* • Life, Environmental • Life, Ecology & Environmental • Physical, Life • Earth, Sampler • Chem, Physics, Bio *Topics only match about 75%

  6. Eighth Grade • Life • Earth • Earth & Space • Physical: physics • Physical: chem & physics • Earth, Physical (both) • Physical (both); Environment & Ecology • Selected topics in earth, space, physical (both) • Earth, Space, Environment & Ecology

  7. Concerns • Inconsistencies are too prominent • Mobility within region • Students missing or repeating content • Grades build foundation for high school courses & Biology Keystone Exam

  8. Next Steps • Waiting direction from PDE • Expected in 2013 • Next Generation Science Standards • Districts collaborate on a scope and sequence for grades 5 – 8 through the Content Networking Group
