https://padlet.com/jhiggins15/ib7qd3ugdmf5 Various Web sites that provide unit and/or stand-alone lesson plans that meet the new standards. Please keep in mind that New York has made slight changes to the NGSS and these changes are highlighted in yellow on your copy of the New York Science Standards. That is why these resources are all based on the NGSS; please be sure to modify to include the slight changes that New York State has included in the standards. I hope that you can find some useful units/lessons on here. New York State has stated that the new standards are effective July 1, 2017 but there is a 5 year implementation plan. The 4th grade test will be phased out and moved to 5th grade. Grade 8 and high school assessments may also be changing. As New York state releases more information and resources become available we will know more. en-us 2017-04-07 17:35:35 UTC 2026-02-09 19:40:08 UTC hello@padlet.com jhiggins15 https://padlet.com/jhiggins15/ib7qd3ugdmf5/wish/165445563 NSTA has lesson plans that are searchable by key words and each standard and grade level is identified. ]]> 2017-04-07 17:42:24 UTC https://padlet.com/jhiggins15/ib7qd3ugdmf5/wish/165445563 jhiggins15 https://padlet.com/jhiggins15/ib7qd3ugdmf5/wish/169912522 These lessons are made by teachers and have been tested in classrooms.]]> 2017-05-04 12:42:42 UTC https://padlet.com/jhiggins15/ib7qd3ugdmf5/wish/169912522 jhiggins15 https://padlet.com/jhiggins15/ib7qd3ugdmf5/wish/169913303 You can find lesson plans and unit plans here by searching for your grade level and general science topic. ]]> 2017-05-04 12:45:35 UTC https://padlet.com/jhiggins15/ib7qd3ugdmf5/wish/169913303 jhiggins15 https://padlet.com/jhiggins15/ib7qd3ugdmf5/wish/169914140 This Web site is offering a free one year subscription to its content with lesson plans.
