The Physics and Everyday Thinking Suite of Curricula
A main goal is for students to see that the core ideas of physical science emerge from engagement in the practices

Curricula designed around Learning Principles*
• Learning builds on prior knowledge• Learning is a complex process requiring scaffolding• Learning is facilitated through interaction with tools• Learning is facilitated through interaction with
others• Learning is facilitated through the establishment of
specific behavioral practices and expectations (norms)

Look through the red gel
• What color does the square appear to be?• Why does this happen? What does the gel
do to the light?

Looking at spectrum while holding color gel in front of eye
Best to hold gel so you can see full spectrum above, and the spectrum through the gel below.
• Based on your observations, does a gel seem to add its color to the light, take away some colors from the spectrum, or both add and take away?

Observations and Discussion in Small Class

Observations and Discussion in Large Class

Example from Developing Models of Magnetism and Static Electricity Module
• Students perform experiments to collect evidence about behavior of magnetized objects
• Students propose initial models that are shared with class
• Students make and test predictions, and revise their models according to evidence
• Class consensus on final model of magnetism
Example from large class implementation

Initial Experiments: How do magnetized objects behave?

Students then proposed initial models to account for two-endedness of magnetized nails.

Predictions & Observations
Students then observe that when a magnetized nail is cut in half, each half is magnetized with its own N and S Poles.
Students next observe that when a magnetized nail is cut in 1/3 – 2/3 pieces, each piece is still magnetized with its own N and S Poles.
Students need to modify their initial models to account for this new evidence. Groups revised e-mail models to instructor.

Students Consider the Collective Effect of Several Magnets
• Background: Students have observed that either the N or S Pole of a magnet can pick up paper clips
• What happens if you have a bunch of magnets?

Effect of 10 magnets with Poles aligned

Class votes on Clicker Question
Same # paper clips
Fewer # paper clips

Class discusses predictions

Reasons behind predictions• Chose A: Same number
– Class observed that either Pole of a magnet picked up paper clips, so it shouldn’t matter which Poles were facing paper clips, the 10 would still pick up the same number.
• Chose C: Fewer # paper clips– Paper clips became magnetized when the bar magnets
touched them; they are now like little magnets, with North and South Poles.
– Students know that like Poles repel and opposite Poles attract– So the half of the magnets that are turned around would
repel paper clips and the other half would attract, causing many fewer to be picked up

Class interprets results
![Page 33: The PET suite: Physical Science Curricula that Prepare Elementary Teacher Candidates for the NGSS Fred Goldberg San Diego State University Supported by.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062712/56649ca35503460f94963be3/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Reasons after observation
• One way of thinking: the oppositely pointed Poles of the magnets cancel each others’ effects, so it’s like having no magnets picking up paper clips.
• Another way of thinking: the paper clips became magnetized during the first demonstration, thus there were equal amounts of attractions and repulsions of the paper clips, causing no net effect.
• Additional observations and discussion followed to help class come to a consensus on how to think about this situation
