Chemistry Performance Targets for the South Carolina College- and Career-Ready Science Standards 2021

South Carolina Department of Education
Abstract
Science is a way of understanding the physical universe using observation and experimentation to explain natural phenomena. Science also refers to an organized body of knowledge that includes core ideas to the disciplines and common themes that bridge the disciplines. As science educators we must take a 3-dimensional approach in facilitating student learning. By addressing content, science and engineering practices and crosscutting concepts, students can have relevant and evidence-based instruction that can help solve current and future problems. This document is intended as a guide for discerning and describing features of students and their work who have met the stated Performance Expectation (PE). This document is not intended to be read from cover to cover, but to be used, when needed, to support teacher professional learning and curriculum decisions. This is not intended for student use, and thus is not written in student-friendly language. This is not a curriculum or a means to limit instruction in the classroom. Although each PE states a dedicated Science and Engineering Practice (SEP) and Crosscutting Concept (CCC), students will need to use the whole range of SEPs and CCCs to achieve success by the end of instruction. This guide is for chemistry.
