I am realizing that some standards are much harder than others at developing a model for :/]]> 2017-01-19 22:21:54 UTC https://padlet.com/rfearing/uynjqixof7w5/wish/148249908 I like the info about models and how to engage/explain/elaborate the concepts. https://padlet.com/rfearing/uynjqixof7w5/wish/148249944 2017-01-19 22:22:09 UTC https://padlet.com/rfearing/uynjqixof7w5/wish/148249944 I love the clarity that the Evidence Statements give to my planning. I wish I had found those at the beginning of the school year. https://padlet.com/rfearing/uynjqixof7w5/wish/148249964 Gayle]]> 2017-01-19 22:22:22 UTC https://padlet.com/rfearing/uynjqixof7w5/wish/148249964 The Evidence Statements provide clear explanations of student expectations/outcomes. They serve as basis for building meaningful lessons with a clear focus on the NGSS standards. https://padlet.com/rfearing/uynjqixof7w5/wish/148250007 2017-01-19 22:22:39 UTC https://padlet.com/rfearing/uynjqixof7w5/wish/148250007 Vic https://padlet.com/rfearing/uynjqixof7w5/wish/148250010 1. The planning tools make it easier to wrap my brain around how to plan the lesson/unit while incorporating everything that I am supposed to.
2. I love planning with other teachers. I would struggle more doing it on my own.]]> 2017-01-19 22:22:39 UTC https://padlet.com/rfearing/uynjqixof7w5/wish/148250010 I like using the two different colors on the models to show what what learned in the process. https://padlet.com/rfearing/uynjqixof7w5/wish/148250029 2017-01-19 22:22:48 UTC https://padlet.com/rfearing/uynjqixof7w5/wish/148250029 Elizabeth https://padlet.com/rfearing/uynjqixof7w5/wish/148250115 Using the 5 E's is a great way to start with students prior knowledge, build interest and quality questions, and deepen student thinking around NGSS.

Having time to become more familiar with the standards and having the materials needed to execute units will be a challenge.]]> 2017-01-19 22:23:18 UTC https://padlet.com/rfearing/uynjqixof7w5/wish/148250115 Gayle-Struggles/Challenges https://padlet.com/rfearing/uynjqixof7w5/wish/148250129 I need more time to find videos and resources to help with the explain parts. I also found myself doing Step 2 as I created the Components of the Model in Step 1.]]> 2017-01-19 22:23:23 UTC https://padlet.com/rfearing/uynjqixof7w5/wish/148250129 Teresa https://padlet.com/rfearing/uynjqixof7w5/wish/148250196 The planning tool really helps me to think through the processes and activities in-depth.  I also loved the idea if using different colors on their model each time they revise or add to it.]]> 2017-01-19 22:23:47 UTC https://padlet.com/rfearing/uynjqixof7w5/wish/148250196 The planning tools and evidence statements seemed hard to use at first, but after we got the hang of it things progressed pretty smoothly. After this training I do, all in all, feel more equipped to effectively teach the NGSS standards. Also, I'm more excited about teaching them. https://padlet.com/rfearing/uynjqixof7w5/wish/148250202 2017-01-19 22:23:50 UTC https://padlet.com/rfearing/uynjqixof7w5/wish/148250202 https://padlet.com/rfearing/uynjqixof7w5/wish/148250229 I like the breakdown of the components and what the students could be modeling. I struggled with forming a lesson plan around the standard I got as there are so many different animals that could be studied.]]> 2017-01-19 22:24:06 UTC https://padlet.com/rfearing/uynjqixof7w5/wish/148250229 It was helpful to see within the PE the SEP/DCI and CCC and how to apply them when writing a lesson https://padlet.com/rfearing/uynjqixof7w5/wish/148250230 2017-01-19 22:24:06 UTC https://padlet.com/rfearing/uynjqixof7w5/wish/148250230 Seeing how to use a "quick" experiment to engage students with the concept was helpful. https://padlet.com/rfearing/uynjqixof7w5/wish/148250543 2017-01-19 22:26:28 UTC https://padlet.com/rfearing/uynjqixof7w5/wish/148250543 Laura https://padlet.com/rfearing/uynjqixof7w5/wish/148250556 Struggles/challenges:
Initially, my planning partner and I felt overwhelmed until given further guidance. After the experience, we both feel a higher level of comfort in planning in this manner. We were able to create a lesson in a short time frame. It was also helpful to join with another group working on the same standard. It was interesting to see how closely our lessons aligned due to this common planning tool.]]> 2017-01-19 22:26:34 UTC https://padlet.com/rfearing/uynjqixof7w5/wish/148250556
