Students make links that may challenge their initial thinking as well as make new connections.

Connected thread of content-related talk and activities leading from the focus question through a flow of events and science ideas to the conclusion or summary for the lesson

Demonstrate how the evidence collected throughout the activity directly supports to the main learning goal.]]> 2020-06-23 19:52:03 UTC https://padlet.com/abelcastro/ao1mg4jdxyk5h71z/wish/637898721 abelcastro https://padlet.com/abelcastro/ao1mg4jdxyk5h71z/wish/637898722 Purpose
To help students create connections across lessons and concepts.

Students get a deeper understanding of the learning goal if they understand how it is built from and connected to other supporting science ideas and concepts

Connects one scientific idea to other science ideas.

All ideas and links need to match up to the main learning goal. These links need to be made clear to the students and remain scientifically accurate. You can connect lessons to other lessons using graphic organizers. Scientific terminology comes easier if they can connect it to an experience they have already had.

*links between past science ideas in lessons and the current lesson or next lessons should be made
*strong content storyline across lessons
*link ideas together not ideas to activities
*links can be made by teacher or students
*links match learning goals for the lesson or connect science ideas encountered in earlier lessons to science ideas presented in this lesson 

Explicitly connects two or more scientific ideas.

Helps students discover what is important and helps them keep new information organized

*Highlighting key science ideas help students focus on what’s important and services to differentiate between the multiple ideas generated when eliciting students’ initial thinking and the science concepts that build the story 

To reveal students thinking and how they make sense of the content storyline.]]> 2020-06-23 19:52:03 UTC https://padlet.com/abelcastro/ao1mg4jdxyk5h71z/wish/637898725 abelcastro https://padlet.com/abelcastro/ao1mg4jdxyk5h71z/wish/637898726 Always refer to the focus question and keep it visible throughout the lesson. Making sure they record these key science ideas in some way.

*Helps students focus on what’s important and serves to differentiate between the multiple ideas generated when students’ initial thinking and the science concepts that build the content storyline
*Refer to focus Q
*Write important science ideas on board
*Tell students these are key science ideas
*provide visual representations
*revisit essential science ideas
*summarize and make connections
*Have students write down science ideas in their notebooks
*have students repeat important ideas or ask questions that require students to restate and use the science ideas

Makes explicit reference to the focus questions and includes multimodal forms of knowledge demonstration. ]]> 2020-06-23 19:52:03 UTC https://padlet.com/abelcastro/ao1mg4jdxyk5h71z/wish/637898726 abelcastro https://padlet.com/abelcastro/ao1mg4jdxyk5h71z/wish/637898727 Discussion has helped make them more clear. ]]> 2020-06-23 19:52:03 UTC https://padlet.com/abelcastro/ao1mg4jdxyk5h71z/wish/637898727 abelcastro https://padlet.com/abelcastro/ao1mg4jdxyk5h71z/wish/637898728 Help make sense of the storyline and push it forward.  They help thread the storyline together.

More purposeful planning so things are more clear.

When planning the activity teachers need to think about what students already know about the topic. During the lesson they need to be reminded of why they are doing the activity. After the lesson you discuss what happened in the activity and why they think it happened while making connections to earlier thoughts and understandings.

*Set up the activity with the science ideas in mind
---makes explicit links to science ideas
---talk about purpose of the activity
----help students make connections between their initial ideas or predictions and new science ideas introduced during the activity
*Using science ideas during the activity
---activity is designed so that it requires students to make links between the activity and the science ideas
*Use science ideas after the activity
---follow up the activity by focusing on linking the activity with science ideas and the science content storyline

Requires the teacher to think about the scientific idea before planning, during teaching, and after teaching.]]> 2020-06-23 19:52:03 UTC https://padlet.com/abelcastro/ao1mg4jdxyk5h71z/wish/637898729
