  1. Elementary Science Content: Systems & Energy Bethel School District Summer 2010 Kirk Robbins krobbins@psesd.org

  2. Kirk Robbins • Molecular Biologist • Elementary Teacher • K-6 Science Specialist • Science Assessment Leadership Team (SALT) • Educational Consultant • Research Coordinator • Part-time Lecturer UWT • Science Standards Revision Team member • Science Coordinator • South Sound LASER Alliance Co-Director • Blogger

  3. Blog & Wiki

  4. Today’s Goals Participants will: • Increase scientific literacy in systems thinking and energy • Increase understanding of common student misconceptions • Increase effective use of instructional strategies in science

  5. Schedule • Our initial ideas about Systems • Is it a System? Centers • Learning about Systems Thinking • Systems Questions & Digging into Systems Standards • How has our thinking about systems changed? • Our initial ideas about Energy • Video clip- Learners struggling to understand • Lemonade Probe- Student Thinking • Energy Source & Receiver Diagrams • Examine energy transfers in a simple system • Literacy Connections • Evaluation

  6. Introductions • Name • Grade • Building • Summer science experience

  7. POSTERS

  8. Connecting to the research Research on How People Learn (HPL)

  9. Two Hats Teacher Hat Learner Hat

  10. Science Symbol

  11. Cross Cutting Concepts and Abilities(EALRS 1 – 3) Physical Science Life Science Domains (EALR 4) EALR 1: Systems EALR 2: Inquiry EALR 3: Application Earth & Space Science

  12. Our Initial Ideas about Systems Is it a System? • Visit each center with a partner • Is the object a system? Explain • As a table group: Draft a system definition on a sentence strip

  13. Systems- Digging Deeper READ: • Questions to Ask About Systems • Consider: • Which centers have opportunities to ask “rich” systems questions?

  14. Systems- Digging Deeper Read Systems vertical alignment Doc • Systems standards K-12 • Circle any “new ideas” • Record questions you have • After reading the Questions to Ask About Systems and the Systems Standards what new aspects of Systems Thinking do you understand?

  15. Energy

  16. Energy One of Nine Big Ideas

  17. Does this ball have energy?

  18. Ice-Cold Lemonade • Individually-Read and answer • Discuss your answers with your table group • Read Teacher Notes p.78-79

  19. Ice-Cold LemonadeStudent Thinking • Number the samples 1-16 • Do any students have similar ideas to ours? • Identify a response that demonstrates a High, Medium, and Low level of understanding • I will give you a #- what instruction might you recommend? 1 2 We will return to these Let’s learn about energy transfer next! 3 4

  20. Matter Science: Matter has mass and takes up space Simplified: Matter is the stuff of our world Energy Science: Energy is the ability to do work Simplified: Energy makes matter move, raises its temperature, melts solids, and boils liquids. Energy causes changes in matter.

  21. Describe the energy transfers in the system. An energy transfer is when a form of energy moves from one part of a system to another. For example, in a cup of hot water, heat energy is transferred from the hot water to the cup. Energy Transfer

  22. Adding Hot Water Video

  23. Energy Source Energy Receiver _____________________ Source Receiver Diagram Hot Water Heat Energy Glass Decrease in heat energy Increase in heat energy

  24. Ice-Cold LemonadeStudent Thinking • Number the samples 1-16 • Do any students have similar ideas to ours? • Identify a response that demonstrates a High, Medium, and Low level of understanding • I will give you a #- what instruction might you recommend? 1 2 3 4

  25. Describe the energy transformations in the system. An energy transformation is when a form of energy changes to a different form. For example, when you rub your hands together, the energy of motion (kinetic) changes into heat energy. Energy Tranformation

  26. Rubbing Hands Video

  27. Object Energy Input Energy Output Energy Changes Input/Output Energy Diagram Kinetic Energy Hands Heat Energy Decrease in chemical potential energy Increase in heat energy

  28. Cold Water Observe the video

  29. Energy Centers Directions • Pick a partner • Engage with each of the 9 Energy Centers by: • Answering the questions • Thinking about your understanding of energy, energy transfers, and energy transformations

  30. Diagram energy transfers and transformations using the systems in the back

  31. Literacy Connection- Energy

  32. Evaluation
