Description

How can you create science lessons that deeply engage students and motivate them to learn? What does it look like to authentically connect classroom learning to students’ interests and identities? How can science learning empower students to explore issues that are impacting their community and design solutions to address real world problems? This class will support K-12 teachers in understanding how to create engaging, equitable, meaningful science learning by connecting to local phenomena. Participants will identify qualities of a good anchoring phenomenon while exploring several local examples. The class will model routines and strategies for introducing a phenomenon. Participants will work in grade level teams to select an anchoring phenomenon that supports grade level Next Generation Science Standards.
