Do NGSS vary by grade level?

# data[].attributes.body
What are the biggest challenges of incorporating NGSS into the classrooms, are certain grades easier or more difficult to incorporate NGSS into them.

I know that NGSS was created with the intention of introducing a new way to teach science. Instead of relying on readings and student’s memorization skills, NGSS encourages students to explore and solve problems in a more meaningful way.

Can we use common core standards and NGSS standards together?

# data[].attributes.body
How is NGSS different from Common Core standards? Why do we need it?

# data[].attributes.body
What makes NGSS the next generation of standards compared the what was previously in place?

If NGSS is a set of expectations rather than curriculum, how are students being assessed? Is it just an overall gage?

The NGSS are correlated to Common Core standards. They are not a curriculum but a way to connect science to experience.

NGSS what are the standards that is needed to be focused on and how do we incorporate it in a class.

# data[].attributes.body
Science standards of certain concepts by grade level that students must have knowledge of and be able to apply.

# data[].attributes.body
I know that these standards focus more on how students can apply certain concepts and skills to their understanding. They focus on the “how” part, a standard will be attained by a student’s comprehension.

I think NGSS is standards that support students to relate their projects to real life experiences.

They are incorporating them to be more engineering based compared to previous standards.

NGSS are science teaching standards developed by states to ensure the quality of science teaching and the learning outcome of students. Teachers can use the standard to develop lessons and check if the lessons they developed can meet the exact needs of students at a specific grade.

NGSS dives deeper and doesn't just focus on memorization but actually connects to real experiences.

NGSS is doing and experimenting. Asking why and how and not just give instructions on how to create it.

I wonder how NGSS will affect state testing, for example if state testing still questions kids on old methods or not. Also will NGSS affect the time needed for science in the classroom?

# data[].attributes.body
NGSS is expectations rather than curriculum which is also aligned with Common Core Standards. It helps students connect to science by making it relatable to their real world experiences.

# data[].attributes.body
I know NGSS is more about critical thinking and actually doing rather than just having students memorize facts in a book. For example when it comes to the scientific theory we as teachers should avoid the outdated list with an exact order, but instead emphasize thinking, testing, retesting, failing, and learning from it while continuing to create.
