    Integrating to Support Science for ALL!

     

    Integrating to Support Science for ALL!  is a 5-part series designed to have teachers experience, analyze and create arcs of learning that integrate the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) with English Language Arts (ELA), English Language  Development (ELD), Math, Social Studies and Art in order to utilize time in a more productive way.Word on the street is that, one of the top reasons why science is not taught in elementary school is time. With all of the standards our elementary teachers are responsible for teaching, some struggle with getting to everything.  In this series, teachers and their instructional coaches will have the opportunity to bring in their district-supported curriculum, discuss supplementary materials and collaborate with grade-level peers.  Registration is still open.
