Welcome and Introductions• Thank You
• Three questions drive our presentation….– What foundations were in place prior to beginning
the material review?– What process was used to review candidate
materials and recommend candidate materials materials to this committee?
– What is the consensus data, how did it support our recommendations and how do our recommendations align with other districts?

Data Set Two
• Compare student WASL performance by level from 8th to 10th grade for the Class of 2010 or 2011.
• Table 1 has Class of 2010• Table 2 has Class of 2011• Table 3 has Summary Data Class of 2010• Table 4 has Summary Data Class of 2011

Resolving Next Steps for the SVSD Science Program
• At your table privately reflect on the next steps you see for SVSD’s science program.
• Briefly share your thoughts with others at your table
• Chart next steps for others to view• Cut your inferences into strips and post • Clump like strips• Build consensus on the next strips

Next Steps Supported by Data
• Map our current instructional materials and activities
• Look at other instructional materials to consider their instructional practices

TAKE HOME MESSAGE “INQUIRY”
• There is no separation between science process and science content.
• Inquiry teaching is not chaotic, it needs to be carefully choreographed.
• Students can take responsibility for learning --ask, “Who is making sense of the data?”
• The four approaches are teacher tools to shift the responsibility for thinking about science concepts toward students over time.

What is AIM?
AIM is…• A process and tools to analyze and select
instructional materials
• Based on the National Science Education Standards (NSES)
• Aligned with research from How People Learn
• A professional development strategy
• A collaborative process that uses consensus-building
AIM is NOT…• A checklist; it
goes beyond the “thumb test”
• Overly complicated and prescriptive

SCIENCE CONTENT RUBRIC (5) (3) (1)
STANDARDS ALIGNMENTScience content standards: May originate at the national, state, district, or
school level, May include the subject matter disciplines
(physical, life, earth and space sciences) as well as science as inquiry, science and technology, science in personal and social perspectives, history and nature of science, and/or unifying concepts and processes.
Most of the science content standards designated for the specific course and/or grade level are addressed.
Some of the science content standards designated for the specific course and/or grade level are addressed.
Few of the science content standards designated for the specific course and/or grade level are addressed.
ACCURACYAccurate science content: Is grounded in current research and conforms to
fact, Includes explanations about science that translate
information into developmentally appropriate content without losing original meaning or distorting fact.
Most of the science content is accurate with few errors of fact or interpretation.
Some of the science content is accurate with few errors of fact or interpretation.
Little of the science content is accurate with few errors of fact or interpretation.
CONCEPT DEVELOPMENT (HPL 2)Content developed for conceptual understanding: Includes a limited number of key concepts, Develops concepts in-depth at a developmentally
appropriate level, Requires students to apply and demonstrate their
understanding in multiple ways.
Most key science concepts are developed for conceptual understanding.
Some key science concepts are developed for conceptual understanding.
Few key science concepts are developed for conceptual understanding.

What is the consensus data, how did it support our recommendations and how do our
recommendations align with other districts?
• Coordinated Science and Insights-ranklin Pierce and Bethel Districts
• Inquiry Approach 1 & 2: Tahoma, Port Angeles, Tukwila and 15+ WA schools in two year study.
• Inquiry Approach 1.5 and Insights-Renton

Thank You For this Time
• Inquiry I, II & II were selected by the committee• A research based process was used in the review• A strong sense of collaboration and a change in
culture about science instruction was developed during the process
• We are truly looking forward to implementing these materials in the fall
