Three Dimensions of EachStandardPracticesThe practices describe behaviors thatscientists engage in as they investigateand build models and theories about thenatural world and the key set ofengineering practices that engineers useas they design and build models andsystems. 6. Three Dimensions of EachStandardContentFour domains: the physicalsciences; the life sciences; theearth and space sciences; andengineering, technology andapplications of science. 7. Three Dimensions of EachStandardCrosscuttingSeven crosscutting concepts that are meant to give students anorganizational structure to understand the world and helps students makesense of and connect core ideas across disciplines and grade bands.(Patterns; Cause and Effect; Scale, Proportion, and Quantity; Systems andSystem Models; Energy and Matter in Systems; Structure and Function;Stability and Change of Systems) 8.

Problem-Based LearningModelIn a problem-based learning (PBL)model, students engage complex,challenging problems andcollaboratively work toward theirresolution. PBL is about studentsconnecting disciplinary knowledge toreal-world problemsthe motivationto solve a problem becomes themotivation to learn.-- University of Delaware 11.

Debrief Questions How could you apply the Common Core StateStandards to this activity? What challenges would you expect implementing anactivity like this? What are some challenges that EL students wouldface during this activity? How would you addressthese challenges? How would you make this activity more challenging? 21.
