Parts of the Curriculum Map
The curriculum map defines the curriculum for each course taught in Volusia County. They have been created by teachers from Volusia Schools on curriculum
mapping and assessment committees. The following list describes the various parts of each curriculum map:
• Units: the broadest organizational structure used to group content and concepts within the curriculum map created by teacher committees.
• Topics: a grouping of standards and skills that form a subset of a unit created by teacher committees.
• Learning Targets and Skills: the content knowledge, processes, and skills that will ensure successful mastery of the NGSSS as unpacked by teacher
committees according to appropriate cognitive complexities.
• Standards: the Next Generation Sunshine State Standards (NGSSS) required by course descriptions posted on CPALMS by FLDOE.
• Pacing: recommended time frames created by teacher committees and teacher survey data within which the course should be taught in preparation for the
EOC.
• Vocabulary: the content-specific vocabulary or phrases both teachers and students should use, and be familiar with, during instruction and assessment.
Maps may also contain other helpful information, such as:
• Resources: a listing of available, high quality and appropriate materials (strategies, lessons, textbooks, videos and other media sources) that are aligned to
the standards. These resources can be accessed through the county Biology 2 Canvas page. Contact the District Science Office to gain access to the code
and log in at Canvas.
• Teacher Hints: a listing of considerations when planning instruction, including guidelines to content that is inside and outside the realm of the course
descriptions on CPALMS in terms of state assessments.
• Sample FOCUS Questions: sample questions aligned to the standards and in accordance with EOC style, rigor, and complexity guidelines; they do NOT
represent all the content that should be taught, but merely a sampling of it.
• Labs: The NSTA and the District Science Office recommend that all students experience and participate in at least one hands-on, inquiry-based, lab per
week were students are collecting data and drawing conclusions. The district also requires that at least one (1) lab per grading period should have a written
lab report with analysis and conclusion.
• Common Labs (CL): Each grade level has one common Lab (CL) for each nine week period. These common labs have been designed by teachers to allow
common science experiences that align to the curriculum across the district.
• Science Literacy Connections (SLC): Each grade level has one common Science Literacy Connection (Common SLC) for each nine week period. These
literacy experiences have been designed by teachers to provide complex text analysis that aligns to the curriculum across the district. Additional SLCs are
provided to supplement district textbooks and can be found on the canvas page.
• DIA: (District Interim Assessments) content-specific tests developed by the district and teacher committees to assist in student progress monitoring. The
goal is to prepare students for the 8th grade SSA or Biology EOC using rigorous items developed using the FLDOE Item Specifications Documents.
The last few pages of the map form the appendix that includes information about methods of instruction, cognitive complexities, and other Florida-specific standards
that may be in the course descriptions.

Teaching to the Demand of Standard - Core Action 1: Science Instructional Practice Guide (IPG)
The benchmarks in the Next Generation Sunshine State Standards (NGSSS) identify knowledge and skills students are expected to acquire at each grade level, with the underlying expectation that students also demonstrate critical thinking. The levels—Level 1, Level 2, and Level 3—form an ordered description of the demands a test item may make on a student. Instruction in the classroom should match, at a minimum, the demand of standard of the learning target in the curriculum map.
Level 1: Recall Level 2: Basic Application of Concepts & Skills Level 3: Strategic Thinking & Complex Reasoning
The recall of information such as a fact, definition, or term, as well as performing a simple science process or procedure. Level 1 only requires students to demonstrate a rote response, use a well-known formula, follow a set well-defined procedure (like a recipe), or perform a clearly defined series of steps. Standards that lend themselves to simple word problems that can be directly translated into and solved by a formula are considered Level 1.
Includes the engagement of some mental processing beyond recalling or reproducing a response. The content knowledge or process involved is more complex than in Level 1. Level 2 requires that students make some decisions as to how to approach the question or problem. Level 2 activities include making observations and collecting data; classifying, organizing, and comparing data; representing and displaying data in tables, graphs, and charts. Some action verbs, such as “explain,” “describe,” or “interpret,” may be classified at different DOK levels, depending on the complexity of the action. For example, interpreting information from a simple graph, requiring reading information from the graph, is at Level 2. An activity that requires interpretation from a complex graph, such as making decisions regarding features of the graph that should be considered and how information from the graph can be aggregated, is at Level 3.
Requires reasoning, planning, using evidence, and a higher level of thinking than the previous two levels. The cognitive demands at Level 3 are complex and abstract. The complexity does not result only from the fact that there could be multiple answers, a possibility for both Levels 1 and 2, but because the multi-step task requires more demanding reasoning. In most instances, requiring students to explain their thinking is at Level 3; requiring a very simple explanation or a word or two should be at Level 2. An activity that has more than one possible answer and requires students to justify the response they give would most likely be a Level 3. Experimental designs in Level 3 typically involve more than one dependent variable. Other Level 3 activities include drawing conclusions from observations; citing evidence and developing a logical argument for concepts; explaining phenomena in terms of concepts; and using concepts to solve non-routine problems.
Some examples that represent but do not constitute all of Level 1 performance are:
• Recall or recognize a fact, term, or property.
• Represent in words or diagrams a scientific concept or relationship.
• Provide or recognize a standard scientific representation for simple phenomena.
• Perform a routine procedure such as measuring length.
• Identify familiar forces (e.g. pushes, pulls, gravitation, friction, etc.)
• Identify objects and materials as solids, liquids, or gases.
Some examples that represent, but do not constitute all of Level 2 performance, are:
• Specify and explain the relationship among facts, terms, properties, and variables.
• Identify variables, including controls, in simple experiments.
• Distinguish between experiments and systematic observations.
• Describe and explain examples and non-examples of science concepts.
• Select a procedure according to specified criteria and perform it.
• Formulate a routine problem given data and conditions.
• Organize, represent, and interpret data.
Some examples that represent, but do not constitute all of Level 3 performance, are:
• Identify research questions and design investigations for a scientific problem.
• Design and execute an experiment or systematic observation to test a hypothesis or research question.
• Develop a scientific model for a complex situation.
• Form conclusions from experimental data.
• Cite evidence that living systems follow the Laws of Conservation of Mass and Energy.
• Explain how political, social, and economic concerns can affect science, and vice versa.
• Create a conceptual or mathematical model to explain the key elements of a scientific theory or concept.
• Explain the physical properties of the Sun and its dynamic nature and connect them to conditions and events on Earth.
• Analyze past, present, and potential future consequences to the environment resulting from various energy production technologies.

Demand of Standard and Item Complexity
On any assessment, there is a difference between item complexity and item difficulty. Item complexity is the level of thinking that is required to answer a
question, whereas item difficulty is the percentage of students who get the item correct or incorrect. High complexity items are not always difficult and low
complexity items are not always easy. Every standard is assigned a demand of standard (DOS) indicator. The teaching and assessment of that standard must
reflect the rigor of the DOS.
Low (Level 1) Moderate (Level 2) High (Level 3) Students will:
• retrieve information from a chart, table, diagram, or graph
• recognize a standard scientific representation of a simple phenomenon
• complete a familiar single-step procedure or equation using a reference sheet
Students will:
• interpret data from a chart, table, or simple graph
• determine the best way to organize or present data from observations, an investigation, or experiment
• describe examples and non-examples of scientific processes or concepts
• specify or explain relationships among different groups, facts, properties, or variables
• differentiate structure and functions of different organisms or systems
• predict or determine the logical next step or outcome
• apply and use concepts from a standard scientific model or theory
Students will:
• analyze data from an investigation or experiment and formulate a conclusion
• develop a generalization from multiple data sources
• analyze and evaluate an experiment with multiple variables
• analyze an investigation or experiment to identify a flaw and propose a method for correcting it
• analyze a problem, situation, or system and make long-term predictions
• interpret, explain, or solve a problem involving complex spatial relationships

Volusia County Science 5E Instructional Model - Core Action 2: Science Instructional Practice Guide (IPG)
Description Implementation
Enga
ge
Students engage with an activity that captures their attention, stimulates their thinking, and helps them access prior knowledge. A successful engagement activity will reveal existing misconceptions to the teacher and leave the learner wanting to know more about how the problem or issue relates to his/her own world.
The diagram below shows how the elements of the 5E model are interrelated. Although the 5E model can be used in linear order (engage, explore, explain, elaborate and evaluate), the model is most effective when it is used as a cycle of learning.
Each lesson begins with an engagement activity, but evaluation occurs throughout the learning cycle. Teachers should adjust their instruction based on the outcome of the evaluation. In addition, teachers are encouraged to differentiate at each state to meet the needs of individual students.
Exp
lore
Students explore common, hands-on experiences that help them begin constructing concepts and developing skills related to the learning target. The learner will gather, organize, interpret, analyze and evaluate data.
Exp
lain
Students explain through analysis of their exploration so that their understanding is clarified and modified with reflective activities. Students use science terminology to connect their explanations to the experiences they had in the engage and explore phases.
Elab
ora
te
Students elaborate and solidify their understanding of the concept and/or apply it to a real-world situation resulting in a deeper understanding. Teachers facilitate activities that help the learner correct remaining misconceptions and generalize concepts in a broader context.
Eval
uat
e
Teachers and Students evaluate proficiency of learning targets, concepts and skills throughout the learning process. Evaluations should occur before activities, to assess prior knowledge, after activities, to assess progress, and after the completion of a unit to assess comprehension.

Science And Engineering Practices - Core Action 3: Science Instructional Practice Guide (IPG)
Asking Questions and Defining Problems Using Mathematics and Computational Thinking A practice of science is to ask and refine questions that lead to descriptions and explanations of how the natural and designed world(s) works and which can be empirically tested. Engineering questions clarify problems to determine criteria for successful solutions and identify constraints to solve problems about the designed world. Both scientists and engineers also ask questions to clarify ideas.
In both science and engineering, mathematics and computation are fundamental tools for representing physical variables and their relationships. They are used for a range of tasks such as constructing simulations; solving equations exactly or approximately; and recognizing, expressing, and applying quantitative relationships. Mathematical and computational approaches enable scientists and engineers to predict the behavior of systems and test the validity of such predictions.
Developing and Using Models Constructing Explanations and Designing Solutions A practice of both science and engineering is to use and construct models as helpful tools for representing ideas and explanations. These tools include diagrams, drawings, physical replicas, mathematical representations, analogies, and computer simulations. Modeling tools are used to develop questions, predictions and explanations; analyze and identify flaws in systems; and communicate ideas. Models are used to build and revise scientific explanations and proposed engineered systems. Measurements and observations are used to revise models and designs.
The end-products of science are explanations and the end-products of engineering are solutions. The goal of science is the construction of theories that provide explanatory accounts of the world. A theory becomes accepted when it has multiple lines of empirical evidence and greater explanatory power of phenomena than previous theories. The goal of engineering design is to find a systematic solution to problems that is based on scientific knowledge and models of the material world. Each proposed solution results from a process of balancing competing criteria of desired functions, technical feasibility, cost, safety, aesthetics, and compliance with legal requirements. The optimal choice depends on how well the proposed solutions meet criteria and constraints.
Planning and Carrying Out Investigations Engaging in Argument from Evidence Scientists and engineers plan and carry out investigations in the field or laboratory, working collaboratively as well as individually. Their investigations are systematic and require clarifying what counts as data and identifying variables or parameters. Engineering investigations identify the effectiveness, efficiency, and durability of designs under different conditions
Argumentation is the process by which evidence-based conclusions and solutions are reached. In science and engineering, reasoning and argument based on evidence are essential to identifying the best explanation for a natural phenomenon or the best solution to a design problem. Scientists and engineers use argumentation to listen to, compare, and evaluate competing ideas and methods based on merits. Scientists and engineers engage in argumentation when investigating a phenomenon, testing a design solution, resolving questions about measurements, building data models, and using evidence to evaluate claims
Analyzing and Interpreting Data Obtaining, Evaluating and Communicating Information Scientific investigations produce data that must be analyzed in order to derive meaning. Because data patterns and trends are not always obvious, scientists use a range of tools—including tabulation, graphical interpretation, visualization, and statistical analysis—to identify the significant features and patterns in the data. Scientists identify sources of error in the investigations and calculate the degree of certainty in the results. Modern technology makes the collection of large data sets much easier, providing secondary sources for analysis. Engineering investigations include analysis of data collected in the tests of designs. This allows comparison of different solutions and determines how well each meets specific design criteria— that is, which design best solves the problem within given constraints. Like scientists, engineers require a range of tools to identify patterns within data and interpret the results. Advances in science make analysis of proposed solutions more efficient and effective.
Scientists and engineers must be able to communicate clearly and persuasively the ideas and methods they generate. Critiquing and communicating ideas individually and in groups is a critical professional activity. Communicating information and ideas can be done in multiple ways: using tables, diagrams, graphs, models, and equations as well as orally, in writing, and through extended discussions. Scientists and engineers employ multiple sources to obtain information that is used to evaluate the merit and validity of claims, methods, and designs.

Students will:
• define a problem based on a specific body of knowledge, for example: biology, chemistry, physics, and earth/space science, and do the following:
o Pose questions about the natural world, (Articulate the purpose of the investigation and identify the relevant scientific concepts).
o Conduct systematic observations, (Write procedures that are clear and replicable. Identify observables and examine relationships between test (independent) variable and outcome (dependent) variable. Employ appropriate methods for accurate and consistent observations; conduct and record measurements at appropriate levels of precision. Follow safety guidelines).
o Examine books and other sources of information to see what is already known, o Review what is known in light of empirical evidence, (Examine whether available empirical
evidence can be interpreted in terms of existing knowledge and models, and if not, modify or develop new models).
o Plan investigations, (Design and evaluate a scientific investigation). o Use tools to gather, analyze, and interpret data (this includes the use of measurement in
metric and other systems, and also the generation and interpretation of graphical representations of data, including data tables and graphs), (Collect data or evidence in an organized way. Properly use instruments, equipment, and materials
o Pose answers, explanations, or descriptions of events, o Generate explanations that explicate or describe natural phenomena (inferences), o Use appropriate evidence and reasoning to justify these explanations to others, o Communicate results of scientific investigations, and o Evaluate the merits of the explanations produced by others.
• identify sources of information and assess their reliability according to the strict standards of scientific investigation.
• describe and provide examples of how similar investigations conducted in many parts of the world result in the same outcome.
• recognize the role of creativity in constructing scientific questions, methods and explanations.
