EDC G 619 : Designing Instruction: Science
Choose a physical science learning standard that you would like to address in a ³microteaching² 30- to 60-minute investigation with elementary students. Your learning standard should fall within one of these broad areas of physical science: force and motion, properties of matter, or energy. For a list of elementary science learning standards, see the Massachusetts Curriculum Framework for Science and Technology/Engineering.
Assignment Summary:
1. Explain the science content area that you will target in your microteaching.
2. Describe what would be considered a "scientific understanding" of the content area.
3. Summarize research findings on children¹s ideas about the content area.
