The purpose of this article is to share a research proposal from a Lesson Study focused on elementary science, while analyzing the cycle through Kager et al. 2023 framework.
Our approach was to conduct a Lesson Study cycle influenced by the Mills College Lesson Study Group and the Chicago Lesson Study Alliance.
We found that students' ability to use argumentation to models to learn science. When teaching, we found that bansho, notebook writing and using student discourse help students learn. We found that we can effectively plan Lesson Study through Zoom.
This article contributes to the goal of including teacher voices first-hand as knowledge producers within the Lesson Study community. It adds value by increasing the number of examples of Science-based Lesson Study in the literature.
