Instructional Methods for Single Subject Science
In the CSU East Bay course, Instructional Methods for the Single Subject Science Classroom, teacher candidates explore inclusive methods for teaching science to the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) and prepare for meeting the California State Teacher Performance Expectations and the Teacher Performance Assessment requirements for single subject science.
​
Below is an assignment from a unit on teaching to the NGSS standards by using an observable phenomenon as a vehicle to engage students' interest and teach them scientific practices, concepts and core ideas that can explain the phenomenon. In this example, the phenomenon is that ocean acidification, due to increased carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is harming the ability of shellfish to produce their shells.
