Rodger Bybee and Kim Bess April 5, 2014
Goals for today
Increase our own understanding and knowledge of the NGSS 3-Dimensions (practices, core ideas,
crosscutting concepts) The role of Performance Expectations as
standards Learn or revisit the 5E Model of Instruction Plan a lesson or unit using the translating
documents
Today’s Assumptions
Familiar with: Next Generation Science Standards
Design Dimensions
A Framework for K-12 Science Education
Common Core State Standards in English Language Arts
Professional Development Experience
“SLOW DOWN!! YOU’RE GOING TO GET
US KILLED”
NGSS Grade 5 Physical Science
