Staff Development Course Explanation:
In this session teachers will explain the potential value of teaching and learning
science through drawing by creating a list of ways in which they can incorporate
drawings in science
South Carolina Professional Standards:
5.B The teacher uses a variety of instructional strategies. The teacher draws from a
substantial repertoire of instructional strategies, varying his or her strategies both
within and among lessons according to the particular objectives and content and
the students ability levels, learning styles, rates of learning, and special needs. The
teacher conveys information in a variety of formats (e.g., lectures, videotapes,
texts, DVDs) and approaches (e.g., demonstrations, guided practice, guided
discovery, simulations). As appropriate to the learners and the learning, the
teachers instructional strategies include sharing instructional responsibilities with
other teachers, guest speakers, and/or parents; varying and/or exchanging roles
(e.g., instructor, facilitator, coach, observer) with students; and creating
opportunities for both independent and collaborative learning experiences.
Objectives
Objective 1a: Teacher will identify and develop Big Ideas for teaching the Science
standards.
Objective 1b: Teachers will develop explanatory narrative drawings.
Objective 1c: Teachers will create exemplar drawings to use in their class using
different apps and technology software in which students can make their thinking
visible through drawing

Assessments
Activity 1:
Focusing on the science standard selected during the warm-up activity work
through the
Big Idea Tool.
**Reference the handouts
Label the paper BIG IDEA ASSIGNMENT (use only one side of the
drawing paper)
Work alone or with a partner
Activity 2:
For this assignment, you should visualize yourself using drawing to teach
your "least favorite" standard to a student who has minimal English speaking
skills. At bare minimum, what would you need to be able to draw simply and
quickly while teaching about this subject when working with an ELL
student?
On a single page, create an inventory or your own design with drawings and
their named labels. For example, if you were teaching about chemical
reactions, you would need to be able to draw various pieces of science
equipment or a simple DNA molecule icon for teaching genetics.
Don't forget to practice your typography (types of fonts - letter styles) and
drawing icons (arrows and mathematical symbols.)
