1 Volusia County Schools Created For Teachers By Teachers Contributing Teachers: John Clark Jim Clements Mike Ernst Drew Hilburn Patrick Monaghan Physics I Curriculum Map Regular and Honors

2 Parts of the Curriculum Map The curriculum map defines the curriculum for each course taught in Volusia County. They have been created by teachers from Volusia Schools on curriculum mapping and assessment committees. The following list describes the various parts of each curriculum map: Units: the broadest organizational structure used to group content and concepts within the curriculum map created by teacher committees. Topics: a grouping of standards and skills that form a subset of a unit created by teacher committees. Learning Targets and Skills: the content knowledge, processes, and skills that will ensure successful mastery of the NGSSS as unpacked by teacher committees according to appropriate cognitive complexities. Standards: the Next Generation Sunshine State Standards (NGSSS) required by course descriptions posted on CPALMS by FLDOE. Pacing: recommended time frames created by teacher committees and teacher survey data within which the course should be taught in preparation for the EOC. Academic Language: the content-specific vocabulary or phrases both teachers and students should use, and be familiar with, during instruction and assessment. Maps may also contain other helpful information, such as: Resources: a listing of available, high quality and appropriate materials (strategies, lessons, textbooks, videos and other media sources) that are aligned to the standards. These resources can be accessed through the county Physics Canvas page. Contact the District Science Office to gain access to Canvas if having difficulties signing in through VPortal. Teacher Hints: a listing of considerations when planning instruction, including guidelines to content that is inside and outside the realm of the course descriptions on CPALMS in terms of state assessments. Sample FOCUS Questions: sample questions aligned to the standards and in accordance with EOC style, rigor, and complexity guidelines; they do NOT represent all the content that should be taught, but merely a sampling of it. Labs: The NSTA and the District Science Office recommend that all students experience and participate in at least one hands-on, inquiry-based, lab per week were students are collecting data and drawing conclusions. The district also requires that at least one (1) lab per grading period should have a written lab report with analysis and conclusion. Common Labs (CL): Each grade level has one Common Lab (CL) for each nine week period. These common labs have been designed by teachers to allow common science experiences that align to the curriculum across the district. Science Literacy Connections (SLC): Each grade level has one common Science Literacy Connection (Common SLC) for each nine week period. These literacy experiences have been designed by teachers to provide complex text analysis that aligns to the curriculum across the district. Additional SLCs are provided to supplement district textbooks and can be found on the Canvas page. DIA: (District Interim Assessments) content-specific tests developed by the district and teacher committees to assist in student progress monitoring. The goal is to prepare students for the 8 th grade SSA or Biology EOC using rigorous items developed using the FLDOE Item Specifications Documents. The last few pages of the map form the appendix that includes information about methods of instruction, cognitive complexities, and other Florida-specific standards that may be in the course descriptions.

6 Volusia County Science E Instructional Model Engage Description Students engage with an activity that captures their attention, stimulates their thinking, and helps them access prior knowledge. A successful engagement activity will reveal existing misconceptions to the teacher and leave the learner wanting to know more about how the problem or issue relates to his/her own world. Implementation The diagram below shows how the elements of the E model are interrelated. Although the E model can be used in linear order (engage, explore, explain, elaborate and evaluate), the model is most effective when it is used as a cycle of learning. Explore Students explore common, hands-on experiences that help them begin constructing concepts and developing skills related to the learning target. The learner will gather, organize, interpret, analyze and evaluate data. Engage Explore Explain Students explain through analysis of their exploration so that their understanding is clarified and modified with reflective activities. Students use science terminology to connect their explanations to the experiences they had in the engage and explore phases. Discuss and Evaluate Elaborate Students elaborate and solidify their understanding of the concept and/or apply it to a real-world situation resulting in a deeper understanding. Teachers facilitate activities that help the learner correct remaining misconceptions and generalize concepts in a broader context. Elaborate Explain Evaluate Page 6 Teachers and Students evaluate proficiency of learning targets, concepts and skills throughout the learning process. Evaluations should occur before activities, to assess prior knowledge, after activities, to assess progress, and after the completion of a unit to assess comprehension. *Adapted from The BSCS E Instructional Model: Origins, Effectiveness, and Applications, July 2006, Bybee, et.al, pp Each lesson begins with an engagement activity, but evaluation occurs throughout the learning cycle. Teachers should adjust their instruction based on the outcome of the evaluation. In addition, teachers are encouraged to differentiate at each state to meet the needs of individual students.

7 Cognitive Complexity The benchmarks in the Next Generation Sunshine State Standards (NGSSS) identify knowledge and skills students are expected to acquire at each grade level, with the underlying expectation that students also demonstrate critical thinking. The categories low complexity, moderate complexity, high complexity form an ordered description of the demands a test item may make on a student. Instruction in the classroom should match, at a minimum, the complexity level of the learning target in the curriculum map Low Moderate High This category relies heavily on the recall and recognition of previously learned concepts and principles. Items typically specify what the student is to do, which is often to carry out some procedure that can be performed mechanically. It is not left to the student to come up with an original method or solution. This category involves more flexible thinking and choice among alternatives than low complexity items. They require a response that goes beyond the habitual, is not specified, and ordinarily has more than a single step or thought process. The student is expected to decide what to do using formal methods of reasoning and problem-solving strategies and to bring together skill and knowledge from various domains. This category makes heavy demands on student thinking. Students must engage in more abstract reasoning, planning, analysis, judgment, and creative thought. The items require that the student think in an abstract and sophisticated way often involving multiple steps. retrieve information from a chart, table, diagram, or graph recognize a standard scientific representation of a simple phenomenon complete a familiar single-step procedure or equation using a reference sheet Page 7 interpret data from a chart, table, or simple graph determine the best way to organize or present data from observations, an investigation, or experiment describe examples and non-examples of scientific processes or concepts specify or explain relationships among different groups, facts, properties, or variables differentiate structure and functions of different organisms or systems predict or determine the logical next step or outcome apply and use concepts from a standard scientific model or theory *Adapted from Webb s Depth of Knowledge and FLDOE Specification Documentation, Version 2. analyze data from an investigation or experiment and formulate a conclusion develop a generalization from multiple data sources analyze and evaluate an experiment with multiple variables analyze an investigation or experiment to identify a flaw and propose a method for correcting it analyze a problem, situation, or system and make long-term predictions interpret, explain, or solve a problem involving complex spatial relationships
