Lesson 5: How do you create an Experiment for Space Exploration?
Curricula of Identity and Practice:I The curriculum of identity is the focus of this lesson. The students will be taking their own interests and creating an experiment that will be conducted on the International Space Station (ISS). In addition, the curriculum of practice is being targeted for the students to act as scientists to formulate their experiment for someone else to perform it while on the ISS.

Description:
Introduction: An introductory video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0INW3VK7qxg) of the top 10 coolest experiments performed on the ISS will be shown. The students will then answer the following questions: o What is an experiment that I would like to perform …show more content…

They will then write on these post-it notes their curiosities, questions, and predicted challenges in understanding/completing an experiment in space (brilliantorinsane.com). Once everyone has completed their post-it notes, they will be placed on the appropriate chart/area in the classroom. Upon reviewing the post-it notes, have a classroom discussion about each category and how the post-it notes can be addressed.

Formative assessment
• The presentation that they give to their peers as well as the presentation they will give to other individuals.
• The reflection will include answering the question at the end of the presentation about what were the challenges and accomplishments of the lesson.
• Graphic Organizer to be able to compile the research in a comprehensive manner.

Ongoing assessment
• Through the class/group participation, the teacher is able to assess what knowledge the student has learned as the lesson goes …show more content…

As a team they will first need to determine the different aspects of space probes that need to be considered when building and launching the probe to wherever was decided.
• After the brainstorm is complete, the students will be paired off to complete research on one particular aspect of creating a space probe to then come back to be presented to the team.
• Once all of the research has been compiled the team will begin a sketch of their space probe, rationale behind their elements of the probe, how each part works, and a detailed budget of the probe/orbiter.
• All of this will be compiled as a group into a multimedia presentation for a board using scientific evidence to rationalize their choice of instrumentation, launch time, and what will be explored. In addition, the presentation will include a sketch and/or a 3-D representation of the probe/orbiter, and a budget. The group presentation needs to convince that their probe/orbiter is better than the other part of the class.
• Each ½ of the class will be presenting their multimedia presentation to the board (made up of other teachers or scientists if available) who will decide which part of the class will “win” the contract to create their probe.

Lesson 6- Students wrote their thoughts on the video of the Powers of Ten Lesson 11- Students were able to brainstorms ideas around “what if earth’s mass was 15 times bigger” Lesson 12- Students gave their preference to which country they would expand their soda company to and had to back their decision with support from data Lesson 11: Students were able to investigate the solar system using the NASA Website. One part of the investigation was finding three facts they thought were interesting. Lesson 3-Rolling dice game with partners gave students the chance to practice using the exponent properties and then checking their answers with their partners Lessons 8 & 12- Stations were provided for students to move around the room to complete different

We were asked to correctly communicate these findings as we tested each of the substances she had encountered with both water and hexane. In experiment number three, The Relationship Between the Volume of a Gas and the Temperature, we where given a list of materials and asked to come up with our own procedure, which we did using zip lock bags filled with air, and submerged fully in a measured amount of water in order to find the volume, and then the change in volume when the temperature of the water was increased. In the fourth experiment we were asked to find the temperature of heated water, based on the cold and warm water. The experiment also required that each section be preformed several times in order to ensure accuracy, and also asked that the experimental responsibilities be split up between lab partners, each doing a section of the testing. This gave us an opportunity to work together with our fellow lab partners, with no one person doing the bulk of the work.

If a video or audio work sample occurs in a group context (e.g., discussion), provide the name of the clip and clearly describe how the scorer can identify the focus student(s) (e.g., position, physical description) whose work is portrayed. [ ] 3. Developing Students’ Mathematical Understanding a. Based on your analysis of the focus students’ work samples, write a targeted learning objective/goal for the students related to the area of struggle. [Students will compare two three-digit numbers by completing the place value model, producing an accurate number sentence with the appropriate inequality symbol, and discussing their solutions.]

This diversity can be a challenge; covering the breadth of knowledge necessary within the given time constraints (Stephen P Day, Scottish Education). This can lead to a propensity for lecture like lesson plans which emphasise content rather than process. This fails to convey the kind of hypothesis based enquiry which is so key to every aspect of science as a whole, and ultimately diminishes learning outcomes (Armbruster et al 2009). “By placing students at the centre of instruction, this approach shifts the focus from teaching to learning and promotes a learning environment more amenable to the metacognitive development necessary for the students to become independent and cr Therefore in order to help children develop their ideas and conceptual understandings it is essential to provide opportunities to make links between their own ideas and other alternatives (Russell & Watt, 1992).

The skill refers to the teachers ability tune make learning productive. In chapter 9, it talks about the indicators of learning transfer and impact it states that outcomes, results, and success are three ways to measure learning. The author mansions intentional teaching such as open questions put in a small group. The learning task engages by giving support, it offers a form of safety, demonstrates respect, and provides a challenge. Measured by the behavior that takes place indicates a transfer of learning.

When students enter his door, his ability to keep their attention focus directly on him and the subject he is teaching. He provided his students with effective lesson plan. During an entire class period the only topic discuss is the one he created. As stated in the first paragraph, he presents different materials to give students opportunity to take part. He demonstrates activities through different visual experiments making each assignment simpler to understand.

The knowledge I gleaned from this activity resulted in a more tailored and focused learning experience for my students which met them where they were instead of assuming what they did or didn’t know. My lessons were more appropriate for the learning environment as a result of giving a pre-test and at the end of the unit both the students and I will be able to have tangible proof that our time was not wasted. Learning occurred and this pre-assessment allows us to prove

We would have a discussion about these elements. Then we will go through a discussion about past Mars trip and research that has been done on Mars before. I will go through tools and rovers that have been sent to Mars. Then we will go through all the parts of a rover and the dynamics that are a part of a rover moving. The students will have a criteria they have to meet with their

It is my goal to make sure students are not just memorizing facts, but are actually understanding. They should be able to take the lesson and apply it to other areas of their lives. I believe students need to be assessed frequently and routinely. The students need accurate and effective feedback, so they can make any necessary adjustments.
