  1. NGSS Introduction

  2. AGENDA Part 1 - NGSS - Why NGSS? - What are the NGSS? Part 2 - DEVELOPMENT Part 3 – Framework Part 4 – Activity. What’s In The Box? Part 5 – Sean Elkins video called: Speed Bumps on the Road to NGSS

  3. Why NGSS? • It has been nearly 15 years since the National Research Council and the American Association for Advancement in Science produced the documents on which most state standards are based.

  4. Current Standards are out of date • - Advances in science & technology • - Advances in understanding of learning The new standards are going to get children ready for a STEM workforce by integrating the three dimensions of the framework.

  5. What are the NGSS? The new standards are built on a foundation of three dimensions: 8 Science and Engineering Practices 7 Crosscutting Concepts 44 Disciplinary Core Idea (DCI)

  6. DevelopmentBuilding on the Past; Preparing for the Future 1990s-2009 Phase I Phase II 1990s 7/2011 – April 2013 Video Clip: http://www.nextgenscience.org/next-generation-science-standards 1/2010 - 7/2011

  7. NGSS Framework • THREE DIMENSIONS: 1. Practices 2. Crosscutting Concepts 3. Disciplinary Core Ideas

  8. Performance Expectations • Integrate practices, core ideas and Crosscutting Concepts • Statements of what is to be assessed • NOT lesson plans • State what students should be able to do at the end of instruction • Organized by Topic and DCI

  9. Principles of The Framework: Children are Born Investigators Understanding Develops Over Time Science is More Than a Body of Knowledge Connecting to the Interest of Students and their Experiences

  10. Take a look at the NGSS website:www.nextgenscience.org Take a few minutes to examine the three dimensions of the framework and discuss with your table

  11. Activity • Use the activity handout and the information from the next few slides to demonstrate how the NGSS is presented within the Framework. • Open to any content page within the packets What’s In The Box?

  12. What is assessed

  13. Foundation Box

  14. The Foundation Box (in the middle)

  15. Connection Box

  16. The Connection Box (at the bottom)
