1 Exemplar Lesson 01: Inherited Traits Exemplar Lesson 02: Learned Behavior State Resources: RATIONALE: This unit bundles SEs that address inherited traits and learned behaviors in order to introduce concepts further developed in middle school. Prior to this unit, students identified inherited traits and behaviors. This unit expands that understanding to how these traits and behaviors improve survival. Furthermore, students should understand that instincts are inherited, and learned behaviors are a result of the organism s environment. Each of the content standards in this unit are Readiness Standards for Grade 5; therefore, the learning from this unit will be critical to student success on STAAR. After this unit, in Grade 7, students will identify some changes in genetic traits that have occurred over several generations through natural selection and selective breeding. According to the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS), in the Benchmarks for Science Literacy (Project 2061) [online version], by the end of the 5th grade, students should know that some likenesses between children and parents are inherited. Other likenesses are learned. 5B/E1*. American Association for the Advancement of Science. (1993). Benchmarks on-line. Retrieved November, 2009, from MISCONCEPTIONS/UNDERDEVELOPED CONCEPTS: MISCONCEPTIONS: Students may think that all behaviors must be learned. Students may think adaptations happen quickly. PERFORMANCE INDICATORS CONCEPTS KEY UNDERSTANDINGS FOR LEARNERS Design a brochure advertising two new exhibits at the zoo - an exotic plant and an animal. Identify the traits and behaviors for each that makes them the must see attraction. (5.2D; 5.3A; 5.10A, 5.10B) 1E; 2E; 5B Properties Structure and Function, Organisms Systems Survival KEY ACADEMIC VOCABULARY SUPPORTING CONCEPTUAL DEVELOPMENT Traits characteristics or attributes of an organism that are inherited and/or influenced by the environment Behaviors the actions or reactions of an organism in response to external or internal stimuli Structures and functions specific to a species help them live and survive within their environment. Survival of organisms depends on their inherited traits and learned behaviors. 2012, TESCCC 04/18/12 page 1 of 5

The English Language Proficiency Standards (ELPS), as required by 19 Texas Administrative Code, Chapter 74, Subchapter A, 74.4, outline English language proficiency level descriptors and student expectations for English language learners (ELLs). School districts are required to implement ELPS as an integral part of each subject in the required curriculum. School districts shall provide instruction in the knowledge and skills of the foundation and enrichment curriculum in a manner that is linguistically accommodated commensurate with the student s levels of English language proficiency to ensure that the student learns the knowledge and skills in the required curriculum. School districts shall provide content-based instruction including the cross-curricular second language acquisition essential knowledge and skills in subsection (c) of the ELPS in a manner that is linguistically accommodated to help the student acquire English language proficiency. ELPS# C(1) 1E C(2) 2E C(5) 5B Subsection C: Cross-curricular second language acquisition essential knowledge and skills. Cross-curricular second language acquisition/learning strategies. The ELL uses language learning strategies to develop an awareness of his or her own learning processes in all content areas. In order for the ELL to meet grade-level learning expectations across the foundation and enrichment curriculum, all instruction delivered in English must be linguistically accommodated (communicated, sequenced, and scaffolded) commensurate with the student's level of English language proficiency. The student is expected to: Internalize new basic and academic language by using and reusing it in meaningful ways in speaking and writing activities that build concept and language attainment. Cross-curricular second language acquisition/listening. The ELL listens to a variety of speakers including teachers, peers, and electronic media to gain an increasing level of comprehension of newly acquired language in all content areas. ELLs may be at the beginning, intermediate, advanced, or advanced high stage of English language acquisition in listening. In order for the ELL to meet grade-level learning expectations across the foundation and enrichment curriculum, all instruction delivered in English must be linguistically accommodated (communicated, sequenced, and scaffolded) commensurate with the student's level of English language proficiency. The student is expected to: Use visual, contextual, and linguistic support to enhance and confirm understanding of increasingly complex and elaborated spoken language. Cross-curricular second language acquisition/writing. The ELL writes in a variety of forms with increasing accuracy to effectively address a specific purpose and audience in all content areas. ELLs may be at the beginning, intermediate, advanced, or advanced high stage of English language acquisition in writing. In order for the ELL to meet grade-level learning expectations across foundation and enrichment curriculum, all instruction delivered in English must be linguistically accommodated (communicated, sequenced, and scaffolded) commensurate with the student's level of English language proficiency. For Kindergarten and Grade 1, certain of these student expectations do not apply until the student has reached the stage of generating original written text using a standard writing system. The student is expected to: Write using newly acquired basic vocabulary and content-based grade-level vocabulary. 2012, TESCCC 04/18/12 page 5 of 5
