Issues and Earth Science: Geological Processes, Revised
by Lawrence Hall of Science University of California BerkeleyNIMAC-sourced textbook <p>Where should we store our nuclear waste? Students learn about both gradual and sudden changes to the Earth’s surface, what causes them, and how they are monitored. They also explore how different kinds of rocks are formed and learn about some natural resources, where we find them, and how we use them. PE Assessment Example: Would you select one of the four suggested sites for storing nuclear waste? Explain. Use evidence from this unit to support your decision and identify any trade-offs. Geological Processes is part of Issues and Science three year middle school program, designed by SEPUP at the Lawrence Hall of Science. This six to seven week unit anchors the lessons around the the socio-science issue: Where should we store our nuclear waste? Investigative phenomena within the 18 activities connect back to the issue and storyline. This unit builds towards and assesses PEs ESS2-1, ESS2-2, ESS2-3, ESS3-1, ESS3-2. The Student Book guides students in exploring a socio-science issue and connected phemonena through a series of varied activity types. Activity types use one of twelve different instructional strategies to apply Science and Engineering Practices to specific Disciplinary Core Ideas and Cross Cutting Concepts. SEPUP's integrated literacy strategies help students process new science content, develop their analytical skills, make connections between related concepts, and express their knowledge orally and in writing. The built-in assessment system helps teachers identify students' strengths and weaknesses from the beginning of the unit. This allows them to adjust activities when needed so that all students get the best chance to build their knowledge and appreciation of science. At the back of the Student Book there is an Appendix containing additional resources for students, such as science skills, literacy strategies, and media literacy among others.</p>
Issues and Life Science: From Cells to Organisms, Revised
by Lawrence Hall of Science University of California BerkeleyNIMAC-sourced textbook <p>How should we prevent the spread of an infectious disease? Students investigate how scientists first learned about cells and how this discovery led to new understandings of how infectious diseases spread. They gather evidence about the structures and functions of cells, develop models of cells, and explain how cells in animals and plants get the matter and energy they need to survive and grow. PE Assessment Example: Based on what you have learned in the “Cells Alive!” activity and this activity, draw a diagram (or create another type of model) to show what happens to the food you eat. Your model should show the movement of matter and the release of energy stored in food. From Cells to Organisms is part of Issues and Science three year middle school program, designed by SEPUP at the Lawrence Hall of Science. This five to six week unit anchors the lessons around the the socio-science issue: How should we prevent the spread of an infectious disease? Investigative phenomena within the 15 activities connect back to the issue and storyline. This unit builds towards and assesses PEs LS1-1, LS1-2, LS1-6, LS1-7.</p>
