Plan for morning Help yourself to food and coffee Messaging the Framework Important points made by Pruitt Reviewing the draft NYSSLS Discussing the NYSSLS Survey Plans for next meeting and next year Pilot study
Introductions Introduce yourself and share what you are hopeful about related to the impending new science standards.
Messaging the Framework What should everyone know about the first three chapters in the Framework? Develop three messages (assertions, claims, statements) Write 3 proof points (facts, statistics, short quote, anecdote) to support each message One message per 3x5 card We will share them (verbally and written)
Pruitts 2012 NSTA Talk Each table share one thing from Pruitt s talk that we need to thinking about moving forward with new standards. Share your rationale for selection
Draft NYSSLS Adopted the topical arrangement 14 new PEs K-HS 9 PEs for Pre-K added Altered approximately 30 PEs SED did not mark these clearly Various changes to DCI (insertions, deletions, and partial edits)
Generalizations More changes in middle and high school. Earth and Space Science has the least amount of changes There are some changes that alter the PE significantly No noted changes to science & engineering practices or cross-cutting concepts.
