Common Core Aligned Science Resources

Curriculum & Instruction

The Sue Stickel at the Sacramento County Office of Education compiled this lists of resources for English Language Arts that are aligned with the Common Core.

This resource provides links and brief summaries of the materials and uses spanning History and Social Studies topics.

Education and the Environment Initiative (EEI) Curriculum

  • Field-tested in Kindergarten to 12th grade classrooms from San Diego to California’s North Coast, the 85 EEI Curriculum units cover selected academic content standards in both Science and History-Social Science.
  • Each EEI Curriculum unit is designed to teach one or more standards to mastery.
  • Field-tested in Kindergarten to 12th grade classrooms from San Diego to California’s North Coast, the 85 EEI Curriculum units cover selected academic content standards in both Science and History-Social Science.

SBCE – Science, Biostatistics, and Cancer Education

  • Expected release of lessons is spring 2013
  • The How Sure Are You: Science, Biostatistics, and Cancer Education (SBCE) project is developing web-based teaching modules and cases using data-rich cancer and health education resources aimed at high school biology, statistics and integrated science teachers. The modules are aimed at addressing the new Common Core Math Standards as well as the emerging Science Standards using strategies supported by research on teaching statistical reasoning to diverse learners.
  • The modules support students becoming knowledgeable about clinical trials, population disparities in cancer research and cancer prevention, making evidence-based arguments and health decisions, and developing awareness of under representation in clinical trials and STEM careers.
  • As a result, students gain:
  • Understanding of cancer, population studies and clinical trials;
  • Ability to develop and present a valid scientific argument;
  • Ability to select and use appropriate statistical methods to analyze data; and
  • Interest in science and STEM careers.
