Brief Class Description (contextual information including number of
students, subject, level, IEP/ELL/GT or other special considerations):
I am teaching a 4th grade science class of around 25 students. The class is divided
into 6 groups of around 3-4 students per group. There are a few IEPs for students
with behavioral issues and attention deficit disorders. In addition, many of the
students are very low achieving. Math and reading scores measure below grade
level for some students.
Alignment:
NGSS 2: Reason abstractly and quantitatively.
NGSS.4: Reason Qualitatively
MP.7: Use data to support reasoning
MP.8: Look for and express regularity in reasoning.
Objective:
Materials Needed:
Computer
Projection screen
Internet
Video
Scientific Method handout sheet X2
Test 1: Water, Ground pepper, 3 types of soap, and a large Bowl.
Test 2: Baking Soda, Vinegar, Water, Salt, Cups, Gummy Bears Ruler.
Technology Integration/Needs:
The class will start off with a music video/rap for the engagement. This will
be shown to the class as a whole.
Lesson Procedure:
Opening Activity (describe your warm-up/engagement/hook/motivation):
We will begin science with a short music video that will go over the scientific
method.
Once the music video is over, we will list the steps of the scientific method on
the board for the class to refer back to as we conduct experiments. (Bolded items
are added information the video does not include the bold items)
(4,5,and 6 are all experiment)

Adaptations (for IEP, ELL, culture, and other special needs):
No Adaptations needed. Students will raise their hand to contribute. They can
each come up and write something on the board.
