  Science Standards
  1. Science Process standards have been included. 
    1. There are 8 of them and they have purpose to math process standard.
    2. You can find a copy of these in the “Resources and Documents” on the Science and Computer Science Standards page.
    3. Pink handout describes what these process standards might look like in classroom instruction.
  2. Let’s explore the shifts!Look at the PDF Correlation Guide for Science Standards
    1. What is similar?
    2. What is new?
    3. When standards have been reworded – what “shift” is represented in the new revision?
  3. Science Standards Resource Guides – These charts help us better understand what the standard may mean. 
    1. Clarifying statements
    2. Vocabulary
    3. Crosscutting concepts
    4. Disciplinary Core Idea
 
Computer Science K-8
  1. K-2 standards and 3-5 standards
  2. DOE’s vision is that these standards are woven throughout all areas and all aspects of the day. Embed computer science into ELA, Math, Science, Social Studies, music, art PE
  3. Everyone is responsible for teaching them, but DOE suggests finding “point persons” within grade levels and buildings to be resources and support
