Elaborating by Using Evidence and Informational Texts in Science

My Students

My students come from mixed backgrounds of single-parent, traditional family, mixed family, and foster or grandparent care. Common to all is the desire to be given the opportunity to explore and discover critical-thinking skills needed as they transition from being the students of today to the leaders of tomorrow. My students are ambitious, kind and ready to learn cross-cutting science and engineering concepts. Your donation will provide resources for them. We are currently working with our new Science and Engineering 3D standards and utilizing the 5E model (Engage, Explore, Explain, Elaborate and Evaluate).

My Project

I am looking to help students with questioning sequences in the classroom by giving them materials needed to seek information from additional sources.

The informational text bundle will provide background information and the inquiry lab bundle will provide them with a hands-on experience.

The students will then be able to provide a claim based on evidence and back up with reasoning. I am really hoping to incorporate questioning sequences in my class room and need more materials to assist students in elaborating and providing evidence. The materials in this project with assist with this aspect and provide learning opportunities for the students in my classroom. Your consideration is appreciated.
