3-D Assessment Writing Workday

BOCES 4 Science 3-D assessment experts will be on hand to support you as you write new assessments, finish ones you started, or evaluate ones that others have written. (If you are a Chemistry or Physics teacher, please keep in mind that NYSED has not yet released any sample clusters for your domains, so this workday may be of limited value to you.)

Regents Earth and Space Science NYSSLS Curriculum Cohort
This new cohort provides an opportunity for Regents Earth and Space Science teachers to collaborate with colleagues across the region to ensure their readiness to deliver NYSSLS-aligned instruction to their students. The focus will be on curriculum work that involves modifying existing in-district, evaluating/adopting/adapting off-the-shelf, and/or writing original curriculum components. Everything that is created, adapted, or modified by cohort participants will be shared with all. We will engage in curriculum mapping, identification of gaps to NYSSLS alignment, and remediation of the gaps. The three sessions will be facilitated by BOCES 4 Science, and there will be an hour for lunch on your own each day.
