Description
Summary:Supporting Trust, Risk Taking, and Equity in Your Classroom Ms. B is helping her sixth-grade students share their initial ideas to explain a puzzling phenomenon. Classroom culture to support equitable sensemaking The Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS Lead States 2013) and A Framework for K-12 Science Education (National Research Council 2012) emphasize an equity vision of science instruction in which all students are known, heard, and supported with access and opportunities for learning as they figure out phenomena. First we will briefly describe these features and then identify specific teaching strategies to support them. In the discussion excerpt shared in the box, we see three different student ideas (tectonic plates, snow pushing the mountain up, and the mountain getting taller as it moves up a hill) being shared.
