Unit / Science/Scientific Reasoning


Subject:

Lesson Title / Introduction to Scientific Reasoning and Integration of Language Arts


Focus: into the Curriculum.

PLANNING AND PREPARATION

Content Knowledge How was this lesson developed based on your research and knowledge of
content and the discipline?
This lesson was developed based on the standards of leaning for scientific reasoning. The unit
was developed by gathering information about processes and ways that findings are
demonstrated. Outside sources were used as well as references from other teachers.

Learner Differences
How did this lesson develop as a result of your examination of research and data about student
learning needs, how diverse students learn your content/lesson topic and how you can employ
culturally sustaining pedagogies, difficulties students might have, gaps in their knowledge, assets
they have, and so on?
This lesson was developed based on the standards of learning for this grade level. As well as data
from previously given preassessments to gauge students current understanding and target
learning areas that need improvement. There will be assistance in the classroom as well as
additional learning material for students who need it. Collaboration will be used to ensure
students are brainstorming and working with one another. This also ensures that students are
included and participating in the class group activities.
Outcomes/Goals What will students be expected to know or do as a result of this lesson? Are
these learning target(s)/outcome(s) appropriate based on your prior assessment/knowledge of
students’ understandings? Are your targets/outcomes observable and measurable? What are your
essential questions that align with the outcomes? List all outcomes associated with this lesson.
The expected outcomes for this lesson will be that students are able to accurately identify an
organism or object using a classification key. Students will be able to correctly display data in a
graph that identifies relationships between variables, identify properties of matter and group
based on those properties, and students are able to describe the characteristics of the molecules in
solids, liquids and gases. The goal of this lesson is also that students are able to listen, draw
conclusions ad share responses in a group learning activities. They will be able to work in groups
as well as independently.

Standards Which content, state, and national standards connect with your outcomes? List the
state, content, and national standard or standards that are being addressed.

Science 5.1 The students will demonstrate an understanding of scientific reasoning, logic, and
the nature of science by planning and conducting investigations in which
d) hypotheses are formed from testable questions;
e) independent and dependent variables are identified;
f) constants in an experimental situation are identified;
g) data are collected, recorded, analyzed, and communicated using proper graphical
representations and metric measurements;
j) models are constructed to clarify explanations, demonstrate relationships, and solve needs.

Language Arts 5.1 The student will listen, draw conclusions, and share responses in subject-
related group learning activities
a) Participate in and contribute to discussions across content areas.
e) Demonstrate the ability to collaborate with diverse teams.
f) Demonstrate the ability to work independently.

Resources and Materials What resources and other materials will be incorporated and how will
they promote active learning? Be specific. List all materials and resources needed for the lesson.
 Promethean Board
 Chromebook for each student
 Teachers laptop
 Pencil/writing instrument
 Paper/writing notebook
Technology Does technology enhance the design and delivery of your lesson? Does the use of
technology promote active learning? Be specific. List all technology needed for both students
and teacher.
Yes. The pretest will be given on the computer for the students. They will each have their own
Chromebook to work on. The scores will be directly received and a copy will be sent to the
teachers computer. The Promethean Board will be used to display the PowerPoint for this lesson
as well as videos, pictures and other useful information along the way.

INSTRUCTIONAL DELIVERY

Learning Environment How will you support individual and collaborative learning and foster
positive interaction in the classroom?
The students will work independently on their pretest assessment. They will then work together
and collaborate as a class when discussing scientific reasoning and its importance in the world
around us. Again, the students will work independently when completing a writing in their
science journals which will include, 1. “What I know about scientific reasoning.” 2. “What I
would like to learn more about in scientific reasoning.”

Introduction/Activating Strategies How will you engage learners in the lesson and learning?
How will you launch the lesson? How will you activate prior knowledge?
To begin the lesson I will start by asking the question, “Who knows what scientific reasoning
is?” I will have students raise their hands to be called on and share their thoughts and ideas. Next
I will have students do a mix-pair-share around the room to discuss their thoughts one on one
with a few of their classmates. Next the students will take the short pretest. This pretest will
activate their memories as well provide the teacher with evidence of student knowledge.

Instructional Strategies What learning activities do you have planned for the students? Include
a variety of teaching strategies (methods). Activities are to be learner-centered ( e. g. solve
problems, construct models, design and perform experiments, read authentic resources, answer
open-ended questions, support ideas with evidence, compose, analyze and interpret maps, draw
conclusions.) Include guided process of learning. Include the opportunities learners will have to
expand and solidify their understanding of the concept and/or apply it to a real-world situation.
List any independent practice activities.
Learning activities include understanding the scientific method and how it is important to the
world around us. These activities will include class discuss that start with an open-ended
question. The lesson will include reading sources from the textbook that provide evidence and
supporting facts. Students will be encouraged to share their understanding with the class at the
appropriate time. Students are also encouraged to write their thoughts and learning of the topic in
their science notebooks.
Closure How will you bring closure to the lesson?
To bring this lesson to a close I will have students reflect on their learning in their science
notebook. They will answer the two writing prompts, “What I know about scientific reasoning.”
2. “What I would like to learn more about in scientific reasoning.” This will incorporate the
language arts portion of this assignment as well as serve as another form of review for the
students.

Differentiation How will you adjust instruction, including incorporating technology, to meet the
needs of a diverse set of learners?
Students with diverse learning needs will be helped throughout the lesson. The teacher and
teacher aides will be in the class to help them with the understanding the pretest. All of the
sources will be provided for the students to access on the Chromebooks as well.

Assessment: How will you measure understanding of the outcomes and standards? What type(s)
of formative and summative assessment tasks/instruments (e.g., test, paper) and rubrics will be
used?
Formative assessment: daily writing journal, class discussion.
Summative assessment: pretest
The journal and class discussion will be graded on completion and participation. The summative
assessment will be graded on the number of answers the students got correct out of 100 possible
points. The grade will also be recorded as a completion grade. The score of the pretest will be
used to gauge students’ knowledge but not as a real grade.

PROFESSIONAL LEARNING

Reflection How will you evaluate your practice? Where did learners struggle in the lesson? How
can the lesson be strengthened for improved student learning? Did the lesson reflect culturally
sustaining pedagogies?
I will evaluate my lesson based off of the students’ conversations and writing journals. How well
they used the lesson material in their conversations and writings will be a great grading factor as
to how well they understood the content.
