Constructivist Science Lesson Plans_Create two separate lesson plans that are supported by the theory of constructivism.

Within your collaborative group, create two separate lesson plans that are supported by the theory of constructivism. Describe the components within the lesson plans that reflect the constructivist theory.

Use science standards from the National Science Education Standards (NSES) to select standards and create learning goals and objectives.

Include a written component that examines constructivism and its influence on the teaching of science in various grade levels.

1. You must include within your discussion some of the major contributors of constructivist teaching (e.g., Piaget, Bruner, Vygotsky, Dewey, and Gagne).

2. Identify the major tenets or principles of constructivist teaching.

3. Explain and give examples showing how these tenets support science literacy.

4. Describe how the theory of constructivism supports learning through inquiry.

5. Which of the 12 science processes were used in the lesson plans?

6. What types of assessments (formative, summative, informal, formal, and authentic) were used in the lesson plans, and why? Every type of authentic assessment must include an example of how it is used within a specific content or to support a specific process evaluation.
