High School Physics Standard Instructional Plan Seminole County Public Schools Dept of Teaching and Learning 2015-2016 School Board of Seminole County: Karen Almond Jeffrey Bauer Tina Calderone, EdD Amy Lockhart Dede Schaffner Superintendent: Dr. Walt Griffin Deputy Superintendent of Instructional Excellence and Equity: Dr Anna-Marie Cote High School Executive Director: Dr Michael Blasewitz Director of Teaching and Learning: Dr Corbet Wilson Secondary Science Specialist: Dr Rachel Hallett-Njuguna 2013 Writing Committee: Antonia Jane Weston (LBHS) Stan Cutler (LBHS) Carol Merkel (LHS) 2014-2015 Revisions and Scales: Dina Cavicchia – LBHS Jerry Thorpe - LHHS Instructional Plan for High School Physics Standard This Instructional Plan has been designed to support a common scope and sequence of classroom instruction while allowing teachers to exercise their creativity when generating lessons. Explanation of contents NGSSS Standards: these are the Next Generation Sunshine State Standards as mandated by the Florida DOE to be covered during the course Florida Standards: these are the national standards that have been adopted by Florida for Math and Language Arts. Every science course has a few Florida standards from both content areas embedded. These standards will not be assessed during the science course, but should be infused throughout as part of best practices. Learning Goals: these statements were selected/created to address the core concepts of each unit; a student who is able to do what is indicated in the goal with confidence and accuracy, will have mastered the benchmarks in the unit Concepts: shorthand reference to the content covered in the indicated benchmarks to help teachers understand the focus of the unit in a glance Scale Vocabulary: these words can be found on the Scale as part of a student’s demonstration of partial mastery (Level 2) of the Learning Goal for the unit. Additional suggested vocabulary: these are words from the text that specifically relate to the content within the identified unit Textbook references: relate to CPO, Physics: A First Course, Adopted 2010 *This course is inquiry, and lab-based. Lab Component Definition from FLDOE: Laboratory investigations that include the use of scientific inquiry, research, measurement, problem solving, laboratory apparatus and technologies, experimental procedures, and safety procedures are an integral part of this course. The National Science Teachers Association (NSTA) recommends that at the high school level, all students should be in the science lab or field, collecting data every week. School laboratory investigations (labs) are defined by the National Research Council (NRC) as an experience in the laboratory, classroom, or the field that provides students with opportunities to interact directly with natural phenomena or with data collected by others using tools, materials, data collection techniques, and models (NRC, 2006, p. 3). Laboratory investigations in the high school classroom should help all students develop a growing understanding of the complexity and ambiguity of empirical work, as well as the skills to calibrate and troubleshoot equipment used to make observations. Learners should understand measurement error; and have the skills to aggregate, interpret, and present the resulting data (National Research Council, 2006, p.77; NSTA, 2007). Special Notes: Instructional Practices: Teaching from a range of complex text is optimized when teachers in all subject areas implement the following strategies on a routine basis: Ensuring wide reading from complex text that varies in length. Making close reading and rereading of texts central to lessons. Emphasizing text-specific complex questions, and cognitively complex tasks, reinforce focus on the text and cultivate independence. Emphasizing students supporting answers based upon evidence from the text. Providing extensive research and writing opportunities (claims and evidence). Science and Engineering Practices (NRC Framework for K-12 Science Education, 2010) Asking questions (for science) and defining problems (for engineering). Developing and using models. Planning and carrying out investigations. Analyzing and interpreting data. Using mathematics, information and computer technology, and computational thinking. Constructing explanations (for science) and designing solutions (for engineering). Engaging in argument from evidence. Obtaining, evaluating, and communicating information. English Language Development ELD Standards Special Notes Section: Teachers are required to provide listening, speaking, reading and writing instruction that allows English language learners (ELL) to communicate information, ideas and concepts for academic success in the content area of Science. For the given level of English language proficiency and with visual, graphic, or interactive support, students will interact with grade level words, expressions, sentences and discourse to process or produce language necessary for academic success The ELD standard should specify a relevant content area concept or topic of study chosen by curriculum developers and teachers which maximizes an ELL's need for communication and social skills. To access an ELL supporting document which delineates performance definitions and descriptors, please click on the following link:http://www.cpalms.org/uploads/docs/standards/eld/SC.pdf For additional information on the development and implementation of the ELD standards, please contact the Bureau of Student Achievement through Language Acquisition at sala@fldoe.org.

Develop the topic thoroughly by selecting the most significant and relevant facts, extended definitions, concrete details, quotations, or other information and examples appropriate to the audiences knowledge of the topic. Use varied transitions and sentence structures to link the major sections of the text, create cohesion, and clarify the relationships among complex ideas and concepts. Use precise language, domain-specific vocabulary and techniques such as metaphor, simile, and analogy to manage the complexity of the topic; convey a knowledgeable stance in a style that responds to the discipline and context as well as to the expertise of likely readers. Provide a concluding statement or section that follows from and supports the information or explanation provided (e.g., articulating implications or the significance of the topic). LAFS.1112.WHST.2.4 Produce clear and coherent writing in which the development, organization, and style are appropriate to task, purpose, and audience. LAFS.1112.WHST.2.5 Develop and strengthen writing as needed by planning, revising, editing, rewriting, or trying a new approach, focusing on addressing what is most significant for a specific purpose and audience. LAFS.1112.WHST.2.6 Use technology, including the Internet, to produce, publish, and update individual or shared writing products in response to ongoing feedback, including new arguments or information. LAFS.1112.WHST.3.7 Conduct short as well as more sustained research projects to answer a question (including a self-generated question) or solve a problem; narrow or broaden the inquiry when appropriate; synthesize multiple sources on the subject, demonstrating understanding of the subject under investigation.
