– Facilitator Materials Getting to Know NGSS Facilitator Materials for Workshop 8: Planning Instruction to Meet the Intent of the NGSS: Steps 7-10 Part 1. Overview A. Where This Workshop Fits within the Big Picture of the Program In the previous workshop, participants began to use a 10-step process for developing lessons to meet NGSS performance expectations and practiced Steps 1 through 6. In this workshop, participants will continue developing lessons to meet NGSS performance expectations following steps 7 through 10. By the end of this workshop, the last of the series, participants will complete their lesson development and reflect on their work. Finally, participants will discuss and share their ideas about using NGSS in their science teaching based on their lesson development experiences. B. Summary Description In this workshop, participants will continue to develop lessons to meet NGSS performance expectations following steps 7 through 10 in our 10-step process. The participants will develop and share their work aligning their learning performances with previously selected performance expectations. At the end of this workshop, participants will complete their lesson development and reflect on their work individually and in small and large groups. The workshop takes approximately 2.5 hours to complete. C. Learning Goals as Performances At the end of this session, teachers will be able to: Determine the acceptable evidence for assessing learning performances. Integrate related Common Core Mathematics Standards and Common Core Literacy Standards in lesson planning. Construct a storyline for instruction. Review and reflect on whether the instruction will help students to achieve the bundle of performance expectations. D. Preparation for the Trainer and Participants Complete Workshops 1 through 7; Read Part I: Overview of this workshop; Review the documents listed in the Materials List; Prepare the room/physical setting to accommodate the participants; Check the Internet connections and beam projector or smart-board for presenting PowerPoint slides.
