of concepts central to chemistry as well as some misconceptions

about properties of matter, behavior of atoms and molecules, etc.

However, I did find that 9 students scored significantly higher than

their peers

(scores of 60% or better) and that 12 students scored significantly

lower than their peers (scores of 10% or lower). Based on this, I

have created three groups:

Group A = students who scored <10% on chemistry inventory

Group B = students who scored between 11% and 49% on chemistry

inventory

Group C = students who scored > 50% on chemistry inventory

1) Unit tests:

a. Group A = students will pass 4 out of 5 unit tests with a score of

65% or better.

b. Group B = students will pass 4 out of 5 unit tests with a score of

75% or better.

c. Group C = students will pass 4 out of 5 unit tests with a score of

85% or better.

2) Performance task:

a. Group A = students will demonstrate basic proficiency (a score of

3 or better)

b. Group B = students will demonstrate proficiency (a score of 4 or

better)

c. Group C = students will demonstrate advanced understanding (a

score of 5 or

better)

Chemistry is the study of matter and its composition, structure, and

properties. Understanding that matter makes up all substances both

living and non-living, how matter interacts, and the concept of

conservation of matter are central to this course. These enduring

Rationale

understandings are a bridge between the physical sciences, life

science, and earth and space science. This is a worthy focus because

it encompasses the key understandings that students should have

by the end of this course.



Repeated practice with using and developing models based on

evidence to illustrate interactions of energy and matter



Repeated practice planning and conducting investigations

individually and collaboratively to produce data to serve as the

Strategies

basis for evidence



Familiarize student with state scoring guide using the student

friendly language version for in-class tasks



Have students self-assess using the scoring guide
