Common Core State Standards Update

Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) update• The NGSS is the new science standards for the state of California

• The NGSS describe the key scientific ideas and practices that all students (K-12) should learn by the time they graduate from high school

• The NGSS is an assessment framework– Performance Expectations describing what students should be able to do

and are intended to be endpoints in instruction

3 facets of NGSS

Content -- DISCIPLINARY CORE IDEAS:
