Description: In this grade 3-5 workshop, we
will be exploring the big ideas presented in the Massachusetts Science and
Technology/Engineering Frameworks. We will carry out an item analysis of the
Science MCAS and examine how key science concepts are being assessed.
Workshop
participants will carry out investigations and discuss how these concepts can
be taught most effectively using a hands-on minds-on approach. We will look at
strategies we can use to reinforce these concepts and to deepen student
understanding and mastery.
