Coherence in K-12 Science Education: Research-based Best Practices in Science Planning, Instruction, and Assessment
Facilitator(s): Chris Charnitski
Intended Outcomes
By the end of these sessions, participants will be able to:
Explore the AERO coherence model and synergies between the components of the model and the AERO 3D science standards and the framework to support intentionality in planning and instruction.
Collaborate around strategies for supporting coherence in our science classrooms to leverage existing practices.
Identify key aspects of 3D assessment to better support coherence through assessment.

Session Description:
Throughout our time together exploring instructional coherence in science education, we will engage with various components of the AERO coherence model to include High Impact Teaching Strategies, SEL, UDL, and MTSS, and consider what each of these might look and sound like in a science classroom at various grade levels.
Grounding ourselves in the science standards, we will explore how the AERO science standards / NGSS and the pedagogical shifts put forward in A Framework for K - 12 Science Education (the framework) support many of these components already and how we might be more intentional bout bringing these components into our classrooms through our planning and instruction. Guidance around creating effective three-dimensional assessments supports coherence across content areas and grade levels. In our last session, we will identify these aspects of assessments aligned to the components of the coherence model to support us in building these supports into our assessments for our young learners.
