If you are new to teaching science or desire deeper understanding of the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS), this workshop is for you. Participants will be provided with two full days of NGSS learning by exploring the three-dimensions, experiencing phenomena-based instructional shifts, and a deep examination of their grade-level standards and how they fit into the scope and sequence of K-12 Science. NGSS will provide a new ambitious approach to science teaching that moves the focus from students learning about to students figuring out.

The Ins-and-Outs of Science Notebooking will provide participants to opportunity to learn how to use science notebooks as a sense-making tool with their students inside and outside the classroom. On Day #1, teachers will learn strategies for collecting and analyzing data and modeling as they participate in classroom-based investigations. On Day #2, at Burris Park, teachers will be using simple scientific tools to make observations and collect data of local phenomena outside. All the lessons are NGSS-aligned and integrated with California’s Environmental Principles & Concepts (EP&C). Participants will leave Day #2 with many wonderful ideas for using science notebooks in their classrooms as well as a class set of Foldscopes for student use.
