WELCOME!
What do you
think?
When procedures are uniform for all students, where data are similar, and where claims match
expected outcomes, then the reportage of results and conclusions often seems
meaningless to students and lacks opportunities for deeper student learning about the topic or for developing scientific reasoning skills. (If everyone gets the same answer why ask the
question? How meaningful is this type of experience? Is this just another school exercise
done to them?)

OBJECTIVES FOR TODAY
Explore the meaning of the terms argument and explanation with respect to the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS).
Create and/or modify tasks so that they have high cognitive demand and will support the science practices of argument and explanation.
Experience gathering evidence to support the practices of argument and explanation within the 5E Learning Cycle framework.
Plan a lesson sequence that sets students up for a scientific argument.

WHAT DOES ARGUMENT MEAN IN OUR EVERYDAY LANGUAGE?
![Page 7: ARGUMENT AND EXPLANATION DEVELOPMENT IN SECONDARY SCIENCE DAY 1 OCTOBER 2, 2014 MACOMB INTERMEDIATE SCHOOL DISTRICT.](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051820/56649cc25503460f9498a1d3/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
ARGUMENT IN SCIENCE
In science, an argument is used…
“to promote as much understanding of a situation as
possible and to persuade colleagues of the validity of
a specific idea….[it] is ideally about sharing,
processing, and learning about ideas”
(NRC 2008, p 89)
![Page 8: ARGUMENT AND EXPLANATION DEVELOPMENT IN SECONDARY SCIENCE DAY 1 OCTOBER 2, 2014 MACOMB INTERMEDIATE SCHOOL DISTRICT.](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051820/56649cc25503460f9498a1d3/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
ARGUMENT & EXPLANATION: WHAT’S THE DIFFERENCE?Create a representation that shows how the NGSS defines argument and explanation and also shows the relationship between the two.
![Page 9: ARGUMENT AND EXPLANATION DEVELOPMENT IN SECONDARY SCIENCE DAY 1 OCTOBER 2, 2014 MACOMB INTERMEDIATE SCHOOL DISTRICT.](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051820/56649cc25503460f9498a1d3/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
ARGUMENT & EXPLANATION: WHAT DOES IT LOOK LIKE IN THE CLASSROOM?
For each example:What do you
notice?What do you
wonder?What might this
look like in your classroom?
![Page 10: ARGUMENT AND EXPLANATION DEVELOPMENT IN SECONDARY SCIENCE DAY 1 OCTOBER 2, 2014 MACOMB INTERMEDIATE SCHOOL DISTRICT.](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051820/56649cc25503460f9498a1d3/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
We relinquish some control.We worry about chaos ensuing.We wonder how we will address students who do
it “wrong.”
(How can we get them to the “right” answer?)
We worry that we won’t be able to address all students’ questions and needs.
(What if a student says something or does something and I don’t know how to
respond?)
FEARS

A NEW MODEL FOR THE PRACTICE OF SCIENCE
![Page 12: ARGUMENT AND EXPLANATION DEVELOPMENT IN SECONDARY SCIENCE DAY 1 OCTOBER 2, 2014 MACOMB INTERMEDIATE SCHOOL DISTRICT.](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051820/56649cc25503460f9498a1d3/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
ORCHESTRA STUDENTS ARE MUSICIANS;
STUDENTS ON THE BASKETBALL TEAM ARE ATHLETES;
WHAT OPPORTUNITIES DO OUR SCIENCE STUDENTS HAVE TO BE SCIENTISTS?

OUR SHIFT IN THINKING…
From thinking that one scientific method fits all
To thinking about how to engage our students in
the practices of scientists
1. Asking questions and defining problems
2. Developing and using models
3. Planning and carrying out investigations
4. Analyzing and interpreting data
5. Using mathematics and computational thinking
6. Constructing explanations and designing solutions
7. Engaging in argument from evidence
8. Obtaining, evaluating and communicating information
![Page 14: ARGUMENT AND EXPLANATION DEVELOPMENT IN SECONDARY SCIENCE DAY 1 OCTOBER 2, 2014 MACOMB INTERMEDIATE SCHOOL DISTRICT.](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051820/56649cc25503460f9498a1d3/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
OUR SHIFT IN THINKING…From thinking that
“hands-on” science is ESSENTIAL
To thinking that engaging students EVERY DAY in scientific practices and thinking is POWERFUL

SHIFTING OUR PRACTICE…
From…
How am I going to teach this?
To…
How are students going to learn about this?

ARGUMENT AND EXPLANATIONAccording to the SEP, what are the hallmarks of a high quality argument at your grade level? Explanation?
![Page 18: ARGUMENT AND EXPLANATION DEVELOPMENT IN SECONDARY SCIENCE DAY 1 OCTOBER 2, 2014 MACOMB INTERMEDIATE SCHOOL DISTRICT.](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051820/56649cc25503460f9498a1d3/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
GETTING STARTED
Claim – Evidence – Reasoning (CER)CLAIM: What do you know?
EVIDENCE: How do you know that?
REASONING: Why does your evidence support your claim?
![Page 19: ARGUMENT AND EXPLANATION DEVELOPMENT IN SECONDARY SCIENCE DAY 1 OCTOBER 2, 2014 MACOMB INTERMEDIATE SCHOOL DISTRICT.](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051820/56649cc25503460f9498a1d3/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
CLAIM – EVIDENCE – REASONING (CER)
What grade level?
Rewrite the student response so it reflects a higher grade band.
How might the task be changed to produce a higher level of student work?
![Page 20: ARGUMENT AND EXPLANATION DEVELOPMENT IN SECONDARY SCIENCE DAY 1 OCTOBER 2, 2014 MACOMB INTERMEDIATE SCHOOL DISTRICT.](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051820/56649cc25503460f9498a1d3/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
SO HOW DO WE PUT IT ALL TOGETHER SO THAT IT’S MEANINGFUL FOR OUR STUDENTS?
![Page 21: ARGUMENT AND EXPLANATION DEVELOPMENT IN SECONDARY SCIENCE DAY 1 OCTOBER 2, 2014 MACOMB INTERMEDIATE SCHOOL DISTRICT.](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051820/56649cc25503460f9498a1d3/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
When procedures are uniform for all students, where data are similar, and where claims match
expected outcomes, then the reportage of results and conclusions often seems
meaningless to students and lacks opportunities for deeper student learning about the topic or for developing scientific reasoning skills. (If everyone gets the same answer why ask the
question? How meaningful is this type of experience? Is this just another school exercise
done to them?)

We need to change our
thinking with respect to
experimentation!

EXPERIMENTATION
Conventional
Separate Unit on the
Scientific Method
Then spend the rest of the year learning
content through text resources or telling.
![Page 25: ARGUMENT AND EXPLANATION DEVELOPMENT IN SECONDARY SCIENCE DAY 1 OCTOBER 2, 2014 MACOMB INTERMEDIATE SCHOOL DISTRICT.](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051820/56649cc25503460f9498a1d3/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
EXPERIMENTATION
Students read the text to learn
vocabulary and background
information about clouds.
?
Students then observe the cloud in a jar that confirms what they already
“know.”

EXPERIMENTATION
Students search for answers to their questions as they
read the text.
?
Students ask questions about cloud formation
and do some investigating on their
own.

5E LEARNING CYCLE
5E Model is based from the SCIS Model of Instruction by researchers Atkins and Karplus in 1967.
5E Model was originally proposed by BSCS (Biological Science Curriculum Study) in the late1980’s.

THRIVING IN TIMES OF CHANGE
It is unreasonable to ask a professional to
change much more than 10 percent a
year, but it is unprofessional to change by
much less than 10 percent a year.

WHAT MIGHT BE YOUR 10%?
Think of a task you will do with your students in
the near future. Jot down some notes about some ways you might makeover the task in order to ramp up the cognitive demand.

Activity Observations
How do these observations help answer
the focus question?
Imagine that you have a pair of Magic Science Glasses. When you look at light with your Magic Science Glasses, you see the particles that make up light.
Put on your Magic Glasses and “look” at the light particles that we’ve been experimenting with. Use what you see about how these particles are behaving and what they look like to explain all the patterns we noticed in our experiments. Use a whiteboard to create a representation that answers the focus question:

PLANNING TIME
Think of a science concept your students will learn in the near future.
What explanation do you hope your students will develop by the end of the learning cycle? (write it out….what does excellent student work look like?)
What evidence will students need in order to develop this explanation?
What will students do to gather the evidence they need to develop an explanation?

content that is complex, ambiguous,
provocative, and personally or emotionally
challenging.”

EXAMPLE LESSON
We know that individual humans vary quite a lot from one another – we are different heights and weights; we have different skin, hair, and eye color; the thickness of our hair varies, etc.
Is there variation in populations of other types of organisms? Would we see variation in a
population of plants?
What kind of variation would we see?
How would we measure and describe that variation?
Task: Following data collection, students were asked to create a representation of their data on a whiteboard that would enable them to answer the following question, “How tall is a typical Fastplant on a certain day in its life cycle?”

HOW DOES WATER BEHAVE?
ActivityPatterns and Observations
How do these observations help answer the focus
question?
Exp. 1: Observation of physical properties of S, L, and G phases of water
S: retains shapeL: flows to bottom of containerG: escapes out of container
S: not compressed with syringeL: not compressed with syringeG: can be compressed with syringe
Exp. 2:Measure mass and volume of water at different temps
Mass of water didn’t change in different temperatures
Volume of water was the same for 2.8oC and for 20oC. The volume increased by about 10% at 0oC.
Exp. 3:Observation of behavior of ice in liquid water
Ice floats on liquid water, but not all the way at the top. Part of the ice cubes are under the surface of the water and part of them are above the surface.
Exp. 4Observation of boiling and condensation
When heat is added to the flask, the water level decreases. Small droplets of water collect in the tubing (and we can also see “fog” in the tube) and then droplets form in the test tube that is sitting in the cup of ice.

Mass of water didn’t change in different temperatures
Volume of water was the same for 2.8oC and for 20oC. The volume increased by about 10% at 0oC.
• Particles in S are farther apart than in L
• Mass stayed same – so particles aren’t changing mass as they change phase – just changing spacing
Exp. 3:Observation of behavior of ice in liquid water
Ice floats on liquid water, but not all the way at the top. Part of the ice cubes are under the surface of the water and part of them are above the surface.
Exp. 4Observation of boiling and condensation
When heat is added to the flask, the water level decreases. Small droplets of water collect in the tubing (and we can also see “fog” in the tube) and then droplets form in the test tube that is sitting in the cup of ice.

How will you ask students to demonstrate their thinking in order to set them up for a class discussion?
High cognitive demand
Students engage in multiple ways that are productive
Students produce artifacts
Task:Imagine that you have a pair of Magic Science Glasses and you use them to look at a glass of water. But instead of the water, you see the pieces that make up water, the particles. “Look” at the solid, liquid, and gaseous water that we’ve been experimenting with. I want you to use what you see about how these particles are behaving and what they look like to explain all those patterns that we noticed in our experiments. In your groups, DRAW a representation of what you see when you put on your Magic Science Glasses.
How does water behave?

ARGUMENT AND EXPLANATIONAccording to the SEP, what are the hallmarks of a high quality argument at your grade level? Explanation?
![Page 120: ARGUMENT AND EXPLANATION DEVELOPMENT IN SECONDARY SCIENCE DAY 1 OCTOBER 2, 2014 MACOMB INTERMEDIATE SCHOOL DISTRICT.](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051820/56649cc25503460f9498a1d3/html5/thumbnails/120.jpg)
GETTING STARTED
Claim – Evidence – Reasoning (CER)CLAIM: What do you know?
EVIDENCE: How do you know that?
REASONING: Why does your evidence support your claim?
![Page 121: ARGUMENT AND EXPLANATION DEVELOPMENT IN SECONDARY SCIENCE DAY 1 OCTOBER 2, 2014 MACOMB INTERMEDIATE SCHOOL DISTRICT.](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051820/56649cc25503460f9498a1d3/html5/thumbnails/121.jpg)
CLAIM – EVIDENCE – REASONING (CER)
What grade level?
Rewrite the student response so it reflects a higher grade band.
How might the task be changed to produce a higher level of student work?
![Page 122: ARGUMENT AND EXPLANATION DEVELOPMENT IN SECONDARY SCIENCE DAY 1 OCTOBER 2, 2014 MACOMB INTERMEDIATE SCHOOL DISTRICT.](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051820/56649cc25503460f9498a1d3/html5/thumbnails/122.jpg)
SO HOW DO WE PUT IT ALL TOGETHER SO THAT IT’S MEANINGFUL FOR OUR STUDENTS?
![Page 123: ARGUMENT AND EXPLANATION DEVELOPMENT IN SECONDARY SCIENCE DAY 1 OCTOBER 2, 2014 MACOMB INTERMEDIATE SCHOOL DISTRICT.](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051820/56649cc25503460f9498a1d3/html5/thumbnails/123.jpg)
When procedures are uniform for all students, where data are similar, and where claims match
expected outcomes, then the reportage of results and conclusions often seems
meaningless to students and lacks opportunities for deeper student learning about the topic or for developing scientific reasoning skills. (If
everyone gets the same answer why ask the question? How meaningful is this type
of experience? Is this just another school exercise done to them?)

What we really want is a written argument in paragraph form that meets the expectations laid out in the basic rubric.
Sometimes, this will be the conclusion to a lab that answers a question.
Sometimes, it will be a paragraph (or more) that pulls together evidence from several lab experiences to answer a question.
