1 Grade 4 Welcome to science curriculum maps for Manhattan-Ogden USD 383, striving to produce learners who are: Effective Communicators who clearly express ideas ively communicate with diverse audiences, Quality Producers who create intellectual, artistic practical products which reflect high stards Complex Thinkers who identify, access, integrate, use resources Collaborative Workers who use ive leadership group skills to develop positive relationships within diverse settings. Community Contributors who use time, energies talents to improve the welfare of others Self-Directed Learners who create a positive vision for future, set priorities assume responsibility for actions. Click for more. Overview of Stards Adopted in 2013, the KCCRS Science Stards describe a vision of science engineering proficiency. They represents three dimensions combined to form each stard: Disciplinary Core Ideas (DCI) Disciplinary core ideas are grouped in four domains: 1) physical sciences; 2) life sciences; 3) earth space sciences; 4) engineering, technology applications of science. Disciplinary core ideas focus on the most important aspects of science. Specifically DCIs: have broad importance across multiple sciences or engineering disciplines or be a key organizing concept; provide a key tool for understing or investigating more complex ideas; relate to the interests life experiences of students or be connected to societal or personal concerns that require scientific or technological knowledge; be teachable learnable over multiple grades at increasing levels of sophistication. Crosscutting Concepts (CC) Crosscutting concepts apply across all domains, they are a way of linking different domains. They include: 1) patterns, similarity, diversity; 2) cause ; 3) scale, proportion quantity; 4) systems system models; 5) matter; 6) structure function; 7) stability change. Science Engineering Practices (SEP) The eight practices describe behaviors that scientists engage in to investigate theories the key set of engineering practices used to design build models systems. The intent is to better explain extend what is meant by inquiry the range of cognitive, social physical practices. (Source) The Full Option Science System (FOSS) Next Generation program, adopted by USD 383 in 2016 for grades K-5, is aligned to the KCCRS science stards. FOSS engages students through active learning with three modules at each grade level. FOSS provides Performance Expectations] (PE) Focus Questions (FQ). The resources reflect learning progressions to develop strong scientific habits of mind expose the nature of science engineering to our students. FOSS also strongly integrates the KCCRS for ELA Math. 1
