28 Inside the NGSS Box What is Assessed A collection of several performance expectations describing what students should be able to do to master this standard Foundation Box The practices, core disciplinary ideas, and crosscutting concepts from the Framework for K 12 Science Education that were used to form the performance expectations Connection Box Other standards in the Next Generation Science Standards or in the Common Core State Standards that are related to this standard Title and Code Two sets of performance expectations at different grade levels may use the same name if they focus on the same topic. The code, however, is a unique identifier for each standard based on the grade level, content area, and topic of the standard. Performance Expectations A statement that combines practices, core ideas, and crosscutting concepts together to describe how students can show what they have learned. Clarification Statement A statement that supplies examples or additional clarification to the performance expectation. Assessment Boundary A statement that provides guidance about the scope of the performance expectation at a particular grade level. Lowercase Letters Lowercase letters at the end of practices, core ideas, and crosscutting Concepts designate which Performance expectation incorporates them. Scientific & Engineering Practices Activities that scientists and engineers engage in to either understand the world or solve a problem Disciplinary Core Ideas Concepts in science and engineering that have broad importance within and across disciplines as well as relevance in people s lives. Crosscutting Concepts Ideas, such as Patterns and Cause and Effect, which are not specific to any one discipline but cut across them all.
29 Closer Look at a Performance Expectation Construct and use models to explain that atoms combine to form new substances of varying complexity in terms of the number of atoms and repeating subunits. [Clarification Statement: Examples of atoms combining can include Hydrogen (H 2 ) and Oxygen (O 2 ) combining to form hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2 ) or water(h 2 O). [Assessment Boundary: Restricted to macroscopic interactions.] Performance expectations combine practices, core ideas, and crosscutting concepts into a single statement of what is to be assessed. They are not instructional strategies or objectives for a lesson.

Coherence of performance expectations D. Achievability and preparedness E. Instructional implications of the performance expectations
61 Section II: Checking for a progression across all grades Performance Expectations Practices Disciplinary Core Ideas Crosscutting Concepts
62 Section III: Engineering Design Note: The engineering design disciplinary core ideas have been integrated into the core ideas of physical sciences, life sciences and Earth and space sciences. The performance expectations in which the engineering core ideas have been integrated are indicated with *.
63 Section III: Engineering Design * The performance expectations marked with an asterisk integrate traditional science content with engineering through a Practice, Disciplinary Core Idea, or Crosscutting Concept.
64 Section III: Engineering Design * The performance expectations marked with an asterisk integrate traditional science content with engineering through a Practice, Disciplinary Core Idea, or Crosscutting Concept.
65 Section III: Engineering Design
66 Section III: Engineering Design
67 Section IV: Nature of Science In the review of the May 2012 Public Draft of NGSS, NSTA recommended that: The NGSS should include a section on Connections to the Nature and History of Science in a manner similar to the Connections to Engineering, Technology, and Applications of Science. The writers have made nature of science more prominent in the performance expectations by inserting nature of science in both the practices and crosscutting concepts.

81 Introduction to the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) Second Public Draft This Wednesday, January 9 th LATER TIME: 7:30 to 9:00 pm ET Dr. Pruitt will lead participants through the document, describing its scope, architecture, and online viewing features. He will also discuss how you can provide feedback to the writers on the draft.
82 ***OVER $240,000 IN PRIZES*** Throughout the years, ExploraVision has reached thousands of students across the United States and Canada. This program has positively impacted young people by broadening their definition of science and motivating students to use their imagination to the best of their abilities. Young people have vivid imaginations, and ExploraVision harnesses that power and challenges students to bring that vision to life. Toshiba s investment in ExploraVision means that thousands of students are introduced to science in a different way. New for 2013, ExploraVision is now more closely aligned with the NRC Framework for K-12 Science Education! STUDENTS COMPETING FOR PRIZES GREAT TEACHER PRIZES TOO!
