6 things to know about quality K–12 science education in February 2022
Three High Quality Units Posted
In the New Visions for Public In OpenSciEd’s How Do Living Schools’ Discovering New Worlds Things Heal? middle school unit, high school unit, students student learning is centered on investigate the possibility of making sense of the anchoring finding another Earth-like home in phenomenon of an injury that our galaxy. Students develop a happened to a student that caused model to explain what makes him to need stitches, pins, and a Earth a habitable place for humans cast. Students investigate what to live and use their models and their bodies are made of and how explanations to argue from the parts of their body work evidence about which exoplanet is together to be able to move, and most Earth-like in other solar develop a model of how the body systems. The unit was awarded the heals. The unit was awarded the NGSS Design Badge by the NGSS Design Badge by the NextGenScience’s cadre of expert NextGenScience Peer Review reviewers. Panel.
In OpenSciEd’s Why Are Living Things Different From One Another? middle school unit, students investigate the causes of muscle development to make sense of why some cattle are significantly larger than others. Students use these ideas to explain differences in other traits, figuring out that both environmental and genetic factors play a role in the differences we see among living things. The unit was awarded the NGSS Design Badge by the NextGenScience Peer Review Panel.
