If you are in one of the many schools around the country that are transitioning to the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) or have already made the transition you have the job of redesigning your lessons to meet these new standards. The website
www.nextgenscience.org has you covered. You can find
examples of quality NGSS designed lessons such as this one asking
why antibiotics don't work they way the used to. It part of the natural selection and evolution unit and explores the case of a girl with a life threatening bacterial infection. As part of this lesson, students will design a model to explain how bacteria populations change over time.
The lessons you will find on this site were evaluated with the
EQuIP Rubric for Science. The rubric is designed to review existing lessons to provide criterion-based feedback and suggestions for improvement. It can be a helpful tool as you are trying to develop your own NGSS aligned lessons.
Where you are finding quality NGSS lessons?
