Vertical alignment5TH GRADE
•Classify matter based on specific physical properties including mass, magnetism, physical state (solid, liquid, & gas), relative density (sinking & floating), solubility in water, & the ability to conduct or insulate thermal energy or electric energy.
6TH GRADE
6.6: Matter & energy. The student knows matter has physical properties that can be used for classification. The student is expected to:
6.6B calculate density to identify an unknown substance.
IPC
•Analyze physical and chemical properties of elements and compounds such as color, density, viscosity, buoyancy, boiling point, freezing point, conductivity, and reactivity.
• Physical properties include mass, magnetism, physical state, density, solubility in water, conduction, and insulation.
• Physical properties can be measured using scientific tools.
• How well an object floats in water depends on its mass per unit volume, or density.

SY13-14 MoY Benchmark Question
Calculate and Identify Unknown
Based on the data and distractors, what key points should teachers emphasize during lessons?
• Divide mass by volume. (Students most common mistake on the STAAR was to multiply.)
• Consistent use of STAAR Grade 8 Science Reference Materials chart to identify density formula. (The formula is available to them during the test.)
Components of a good lesson plan1. Engage Student Interest

3. Student-Centered Activities directly relating to the depth and complexity of the TEKS
• Labs, Activities, Videos
4. Organize and Practice Vocabulary
5. Reading & Comprehension Strategies
6. Writing Opportunities & Scaffolds
7. Daily Listening & Speaking Opportunities
8. Differentiation
9. Formative Assessment & Reteach

Higher level questions• “Research shows there’s a link between critical thinking skills and increased student achievement in the
classroom.” (Moore & Stanley, 2010)
• Higher level questions must be planned in order to be implemented effectively in the classroom.
• Levels of Questions
• Knowledge
• Comprehension
• Application
• Analysis
• Synthesis
• Evaluation
• Plan and provide a variety of questions at each level and build student knowledge and critical thinking by providing Higher Level Questions.

Sample Unit questions• A sample from this unit using the Daily Guiding Questions.
Knowledge Comprehension Application Analysis Synthesis Evaluate
What is a physical property? Describe
some examples.
What is the density of water?
How do you measure mass?
How do you measure volume?
How do you measure the volume of an irregular object?
How do you calculate density?
How do you communicate the data from an experiment?
How can we use physical properties to
identify matter?
Why do some things sink while other things
float?
How does the density of an object compare
to its mass?
How would you find the density of an unknown, irregular-shaped solid?

Anchors of SupportOther Resources•Interactive Word Wall- Current, working models with student contributions
• Interactive Word Walls Article: http://learningcenter.nsta.org/files/ss1103_45.pdf
• “Word walls can be arranged on cupboard doors or classroom walls, or hung from the ceiling with wire and string.”
• “Maximum instructional potential and efficiency are achieved when interactive word-wall construction is aligned with lessons and students are allowed to participate in the process. As a result, walls are usually built over many days and are finished as a unit nears completion. Word walls support units and are changed or replaced as units change.”
