Join ExploreLearning as they showcase how to use math and science simulations (Gizmos) to deepen students conceptual knowledge. Discover how to use Gizmos as a
vehicle through which to teach concepts while incorporating standards of mathematical practices (SMP’s), STEM engineering practices, and english language arts
(ELA) standards. Experience the versatility of Gizmos as classroom applications are addressed - whole classroom instruction, flipped classrooms, computer labs, or BYOD. During this session, EL trainers will share their secret tips and tricks while showcasing
practical teacher and student examples, including but not limited to inquiry, technology integration, claim-evidence-reasoning, incorporation of new national/state
standards, STEM, and continuous improvement/RtI.

Professional Norms
Participating, Growing, and Developing As A Professional• Do Not Distract Learners
• Keep cell phone on vibrate/silence, text and/or return calls during breaks. Put away all
electronic devices. Limit sidebar conversations to content and at a whisper
• Be An Active Collegial Learner• Participate in discussion and activities with a positive attitude• Seek first to understand• Watch your own “air time” inviting colleagues to share and balance discussion between
participants
• Value Your Learning Time• Put away work and non-training materials• Return from breaks on time• Care about improving your skills and sharpening your knowledge
Common Core State Standards
ELA Standards for Science and Technical SubjectsRST.3 Follow precisely a multistep procedure when carrying out
experiments, taking measurements, or performing technical tasks.
RST.4 Determine the meaning of symbols, key terms, and other domain- specific words and phrases as they are used in a specific scientific
or technical context
RST.5 Analyze the structure of the relationships among concepts in a text, including relationships among key terms
RST.7 Integrate quantitative or technical information expressed in words in a text with a version of that information
expressed visually.
RST.9 Compare and contrast the information gained from experiments, simulations, video, or multimedia sources with that gained from
reading a text on the same topic.
RST.10 Comprehend science/technical texts in the text complexity band independently and proficiently.
ELA Standards for Science and Technical Subjects
WHST.1 Write arguments focused on discipline-specific content.
Introduce claim(s) about a topic or issue, acknowledge and distinguish the claim(s) from alternate or opposing claims, and organize the reasons and evidence logically.
Support claim(s) with logical reasoning and relevant, accurate data and evidence that demonstrate an understanding of the topic or text, using credible sources.
ELA-Literacy.W.8.9 Draw evidence from literary or informational texts to support analysis, reflection, and research.
Standards for Mathematical Practice
The Student Will:
1. Make sense of problems and persevere in solving them
2. Reason abstractly and quantitatively
3. Construct viable arguments.
4. Model with mathematics
5. Use appropriate tools strategically
6. Attend to precision
7. Look for and make use of structure
8. Look for and express regularity in repeated reasoning

Materials• Toy race track• Small toy trucks• Lego figurine• Different masses
(washers)• String/thin wire• Scissors• Meter stick or tape
measure• An object to stop the
motion Directions• Design a model that will affect the change
of motion of an object (Lego figurine)• Collect data each time the model is
changed and record on chart paper

Challenge 2 – Construct a diagram showing how the height of the hills affects whether or not the egg breaks. Include labels such as gravitational potential energy, kinetic energy, friction.
Challenge 1 – Identify as many possible variables affected when friction is introduced.
Challenge 3 - Provide evidence from the Gizmo that is consistent with your observations from the car crash challenge on the role velocity plays in affecting the motion of an object (Lego figurine/car passengers/roller coaster physics egg).
EVALUATE(develop a scoring tool or rubric, performance assessment,
produce a product, journal entry, portfolio, etc.)
