Session Goals
Become familiar with each component of Integrated Science: An
Investigative Approach
Understand how the components work together, by walking through a
typical lesson
Discuss general ideas about hands-on instruction, grouping,
assessment, and equipment management

Teaching a Lesson: How do the Components Work Together?
Work in groups of 4
Open a student text, investigation manual, and
teacher’s guide to lesson 5.2We are going to walk through this lesson, and check
out each program component along the way

Teaching Suggestion
What can I do to encourage students to READ the text?When you assign a reading section, ask students to
take notes on what they read. A 2-column approach works well. The left column contains the sidenote heading, and the right column contains key information from the paragraph. Then, give pop-quizzes from time to time and allow students to use the notes they took on the reading section as they answer the quiz questions.
Investigation Manual
Student Record Sheets
Teaching Suggestion
How can I possibly give students a grade for every investigation? Each time your students complete an investigation, focus on
one particular part of the blackline master answer sheet for the grading focus. You can give standard points for completion, and then choose one part to grade for accuracy and thoroughness, such as a graph and one particular assessment question.
Students will compile a lab notebook from blackline answer sheets; give short lab quizzes from time to time and allow students to use their lab notebook. Questions can be written on the board or put on an overhead; no typing or photocopying required.
Teaching Suggestion
How will I manage 6 or more hands-on lab groups? With traditional labs, a teacher would give a set of procedural steps and the
groups would work through from start to finish. However, these labs are designed to be interactive. The teacher guides the students through each section, with frequent checkpoints for bringing the whole class back together to discuss next steps. The questioning process and “chunking” of investigation parts is outlined in the teacher’s guide dialog.
Assign roles to each group member, such as:
Equipment managerEquipment operatorData recorderData checkerReader/facilitator
Equipment
Teaching Suggestion
How will I manage all of this equipment? This is actually a GOOD problem to have, don’t forget! :o) Stands, tracks, other tall things can stand up in a closet or be
placed on a large shelf. For smaller pieces, plastic tubs work great, like a container of
cars, and another container of pendulums. Specific equipment-handling ideas will be presented during hands-on sessions.
Use a permanent marker to label pieces; perhaps match with number on benches or tables and have students put their bench number at the top of lab answer sheets
