PROJECT SUMMARY/ABSTRACT The Authentic Literacy and Language (ALL) for Science partnership is developing curriculum materials to authentically engage elementary school students in how scientists use language, while building students’ science knowledge and skills. Building on a previous project with demonstrated results with students in grades 2-3, ALL for Science is creating four curriculum units for students in grades 4-5 that integrate standards aligned life science topics, with development of students’ science specific disciplinary literacies, numeracy and related health content. Science themes for the units focus on areas of low student performance in life science and reading/writing in Texas. The project will engage a team of teacher leaders, scientists and educators to develop four Texas standards- and NGSS- aligned curriculum units, each designed to provide 3–4 weeks of life science inquiry-based instruction in school or as a blended school and home approach, with aligned reading/English language arts, health and numeracy. The curriculum units and supporting materials will be piloted in local classrooms; field tested through well-matched comparison group studies, with random assignment of groups; and disseminated via the established, high traffic website, BioEd Online (www.bioedonline.org), and through other pathways to reach state and national audiences with high quality, free teaching resources. The project directly will impact approximately 285 teachers and 6,840 students, with availability to teachers of more than 800,000 Texas students and national audiences. The ALL for Science units will be evaluated in urban schools with high enrollments of underrepresented minority and economically disadvantaged students. In addition, two Houston-area elementary schools (combined enrollment of more than 1,200 students) will serve as longitudinal implementation sites to gauge impacts on student achievement and formation of science identity, and teacher practices, while informing continued project improvement and local dissemination. We will measure changes in teaching practices and science teaching efficacy beliefs; and will examine growth of students’ content knowledge, science-specific disciplinary literacies and identity formation as members of a science community. This project responds to the SEPA program call for innovative curricula that will prepare students in STEM and enable their teachers to provide instruction using a novel approach. It addresses two of the three new areas of high programmatic interest: embedded math and reading content and adaptations of successful SEPA programs with new populations.

项目摘要/摘要 科学识字和语言(ALL)合作伙伴关系正在开发课程材料，以 真正让小学生了解科学家如何使用语言，同时建立学生的 科学知识和技能。在上一个项目的基础上与学生一起展示了成果 2-3年级，All for Science正在为4-5年级的学生创建四个课程单元， 标准与生命科学主题一致，与学生科学特定学科的发展相一致 识字、算术和相关的健康内容。这些单位的科学主题集中在Low的领域 得克萨斯州学生在生命科学和阅读/写作方面的表现。 该项目将聘请一个由教师领导、科学家和教育工作者组成的团队来开发四个德克萨斯州 与标准和NGSS一致的课程单元，每个单元旨在提供3-4周的生命科学 在学校进行探究式教学或作为学校和家庭相结合的方法，并保持一致 阅读/英语语言艺术、健康和算术。课程单元和辅助材料将 在当地教室进行试点；通过匹配良好的对照小组研究进行现场测试，随机 分配小组；并通过现有的高流量网站BioEd Online进行传播 (www.Bioedonline.org)，并通过其他途径接触到州和全国观众 优质、免费的教学资源。该项目将直接影响大约285名教师和6840名教师 学生，向教师提供超过800,000名得克萨斯州学生和全国观众。 All for Science单位将在招生人数较少的城市学校进行评估 少数民族和经济困难学生。此外，休斯顿地区的两所小学 (总招生人数超过1,200人)将作为纵向实施地点 衡量对学生成绩和科学认同感形成以及教师实践的影响，而 为项目的持续改进和当地传播提供信息。我们将衡量教学方面的变化 实践和科学教学效能感信念；并将检查学生内容知识的增长， 科学方面的学科素养和作为科学界成员的身份形成。 该项目响应了国家环保总局对创新课程的呼吁，使学生在 并使他们的老师能够使用一种新的方法进行指导。它针对的是两个 编程兴趣浓厚的三个新领域：嵌入的数学和阅读内容以及对 成功的SEPA项目吸引了新的人口。
