Typical Day in Science Class• Every day starts with
bellwork• Students learn new
information• All notes on Prezi’s
• Students apply new information• Labs, activities,
worksheets
• Students reflect on learning
Very seldom homework

Learning Goals
• Based on State and College and Career Ready standards
• Drive Instruction• Determine student’s grade

Scientific Process Learning goal and scaleStudents will be able to use the following inquiry processes: formulate hypothesis based on
observations, plan and conduct investigations, perform measurements using the appropriate scientific tools and metric units, record data, organize and analyze data, communicate results of investigations.

I am able to thoroughly and correctly use the inquiry processes and make in-depth inferences and applications that go beyond what was taught.
I am able to correctly use the following inquiry processes:•Formulate hypothesis based on observations•Plan and conduct investigations•Record data•Organize and analyze data•Communicate results of investigations•Perform measurements with appropriate scientific tools•Use metric units correctly
I am able to correctly define most of the inquiry processes but I still have questions on one of these concepts before being able to use them.
With help, I am able to correctly identify the inquiry processes. I still have questions on these concepts before being able to understand with confidence.
I do not know anything about the subject or I have made no attempt to learn.
