Reading the Next Generation Science Standards
![Page 2: Reading the Next Generation Science Standards](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051420/56815ff8550346895dcef6ef/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
A little background….
• Next Generation Science Standards - based on the Framework for K-12 Science Education
• Every NGCC standard has three dimensions• Disciplinary Core Ideas (DCI)• Science and Engineering Practice (SEP)• Cross-cutting Concepts (CCC)
*** Please refer to the List of Acronyms Sheet
![Page 3: Reading the Next Generation Science Standards](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051420/56815ff8550346895dcef6ef/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
The Three Dimensions• These three
dimensions intertwine together like a rope all feeding into the overall Performance Expectations (PE)
Performance Expectation
Science & Engineering Disciplinary
Core Ideas
Cross-cutting Concepts
![Page 4: Reading the Next Generation Science Standards](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051420/56815ff8550346895dcef6ef/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Let’s look at this example…..
We will start with the box at the top, which are the Performance Expectations
![Page 5: Reading the Next Generation Science Standards](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051420/56815ff8550346895dcef6ef/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
This box at the very top of the Next Generation Science Standard contains what are called “Performance Expectations” or “PE “
![Page 6: Reading the Next Generation Science Standards](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051420/56815ff8550346895dcef6ef/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
• This box contains Performance Expectations. They are highlighted in yellow.
• The red text under each PE is a clarification statement, along with assessment boundaries
MS stands for Middle School – LS stands for Life Science
![Page 7: Reading the Next Generation Science Standards](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051420/56815ff8550346895dcef6ef/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
More on PE’s• They are statements of what a student
should be able to do AFTER or at the END of instruction
• These PE’s contain what will be assessed
• They are not instructional strategies OR lesson objectives.
• Many lessons will be needed to satisfy a PE
![Page 8: Reading the Next Generation Science Standards](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051420/56815ff8550346895dcef6ef/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Now let’s look at the three colored boxes under the PE’s.
These are called Foundation Boxes (FB)
They are color coded for a reason. Blue is for Science & Engineering, Orange for Disciplinary Core Ideas, and Green for Cross-cutting Concepts.
![Page 9: Reading the Next Generation Science Standards](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051420/56815ff8550346895dcef6ef/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
• The yellow highlighted sections in each foundation box shows which PE it connects with.
• Example – Look at Science and Engineering. The second down under “Constructing Explanation…” goes with PE MS-LS1-5
![Page 10: Reading the Next Generation Science Standards](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051420/56815ff8550346895dcef6ef/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Science and Engineering Piece
• Let’s use Appendix F
• This appendix will help you really understand what the Science and Engineering piece looks like when applying it to a performance expectation
![Page 11: Reading the Next Generation Science Standards](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051420/56815ff8550346895dcef6ef/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Let’s look at “Constructing Explanations…” again. This SEP practice goes with PE MS-LS1-5
Find “Constructing Explanations and Designing Solutions” in Appendix F. It should be Practice #6
Read through it….it will clarify for you what is needed to satisfy the SEP for PE MS-LS1-5
MS stands for Middle School – LS stands for Life Science
![Page 12: Reading the Next Generation Science Standards](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051420/56815ff8550346895dcef6ef/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Disciplinary Core Ideas
• DIC’s are derived from the Framework for K-12 Science Education
• These are essential science ideas that all students should know
• Appendix E is helpful to look at because it shows the progression within the NGSS
![Page 13: Reading the Next Generation Science Standards](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051420/56815ff8550346895dcef6ef/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
These work similar to the SEP’s.
Let’s look at LS3.A – Inheritance of Traits.
The first DCI goes with PE MS-LS3-1 and the second DCI goes with MS-LS3-2
MS stands for Middle School – LS stands for Life Science
![Page 14: Reading the Next Generation Science Standards](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051420/56815ff8550346895dcef6ef/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Cross-cutting Concepts• Appendix G contains 7 cross-cutting
concepts with an explanation of each
• These remind me of the Universal Science Concepts or “Big Ideas” of science
![Page 15: Reading the Next Generation Science Standards](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051420/56815ff8550346895dcef6ef/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Let’s look at “Structure and Function”. This CCC goes with PE MS-LS3-1
Find “Structure and Function” in Appendix G. It should be #6
Read through it….it will clarify for you what is needed to satisfy the CCC for PE MS-LS3-1
MS stands for Middle School – LS stands for Life Science
![Page 16: Reading the Next Generation Science Standards](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051420/56815ff8550346895dcef6ef/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
The Bottom Portion
• Bottom portion of document shows connections to other DCI’s
• It also shows connections to ELA and Math Common Core Standards
![Page 17: Reading the Next Generation Science Standards](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051420/56815ff8550346895dcef6ef/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Let’s put it together…
• Step 1 - Select one PE and read it. Make sure to read the clarification statement and the assessment boundary in red.
• Step 2 - Read only the DCI that applies to that PE located in the Foundation Box (orange section)
• Step 3 - Look in Appendix E to read about the DCI progression within NGSS
![Page 18: Reading the Next Generation Science Standards](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051420/56815ff8550346895dcef6ef/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
• Step 4 – Look at the SEP box (blue) and read the one that goes with the PE you selected in Step 1
• Step 5 – Look in Appendix F for clarification
• Step 6 – Look at the CCC box (green) and the read the one that goes with the PE you selected in Step 1.
• Step 7 – Look in Appendix G for clarification

What’s coming down the road….
• Now that you know how to read the NGSS, you will learn how to plan a lesson that incorporates all three dimensions.
