(26 lessons)

All units have 22 lessons except Grade 5: The Earth System, which has 26 lessons.

Implementation considerations:

?

The lesson and activity sequence needs to be followed within a unit.

?

Pacing in this guide assumes 3 lessons taught each week.

?

 essons can be taught either by a classroom teacher or through a collaboration between cluster teacher and

L

classroom teacher.

Course structure notes:

?

 he order of units in Kindergarten and Grade 1 takes early literacy development into consideration. Reading,

T

writing, and discourse routines in K-1 units build on one another from the beginning to the end of the year.

?

Particular activities that are best suited for fall, winter, or spring are reflected in the unit order.

?

I n various instances, students engage in specific science and engineering practices, crosscutting concepts or

disciplinary core ideas in increasingly complex ways over the course of a year.

5th Grade Crosswalk: NYSSLS alignment to Amplify Science units

The NRC Framework for K-12 Science Education, the foundational document for both NGSS and the NYSSLS,

lists standards in the form of student performance expectations (PEs). The PEs clarify the expectations of what

students will know and be able to do by the end of the grade or grade band. Both the NYC DOE Units of Study and

Amplify Science are examples of curriculum designed to create coherent instructional programs for achievement

of these standards. (reference: NGSS Appendix A, page 2)
