Title: BPS District Science Standards Book UPDATE
Course: BPSS (SCI) Science Standards > Section: Shared Workspace > Forum: Science Standards Discussions ...

The 2nd DRAFT of ND Science Content Standards has been updated in the  BPS District Science Standards Book. The book contains basically 4 parts.

- The first Section dealing with an introduction to the standards.
- The second section dealing with standards for each grade K-8.
- The third section the 3 High School Concepts/Disciplines
The only major change to the book was the addition of the specific standards defined for the following courses:
  - Biology
  - Chemistry
  - Earth & Space Science
  - Environmental Science
  - Physical Science
  - Physics
  - Anatomy & Physiology

- The last the Disciplinary Core Ideas where the standards are organized to view the vertical K-12 alignment of the Standards. With all the links this takes a few seconds to load.

The organization of these standards by course groups was meant to serve as a guideline for curriculum development. So the High School Science PLC can have discussions about the selection of standards for other science courses that are not in the grouping above.
