This is the third in a series of six web seminars that focus on the general architecture of the Next Generation Science Standards and the specific expectations for kindergarten through fifth grade. Ted Willard, NGSS@NSTA Program Director, offers an overview of the second-grade performance expectations and related dimensions. After this brief overview, Carla Zembal-Saul, Professor of Science Education, Penn State University; Mary Starr, Executive Director, Michigan Mathematics and Science Centers Network; and Kathy Renfrew, K-5 Science Coordinator, VT Agency of Education gauge participants’ familiarity with NGSS for the second grade and provide a number of example activities and videos with tips on how to implement it—for example, explaining how solids and liquids respond in the presence of a heat source.
