Traveling the NGSS Highway: Engage & Explore - Workshop Series 1 - Cookie Barker, Sarah Fink, and Sarah Silvernail

Are you wondering how to best navigate the Next Generation Science Standards? Science teachers Cookie Barker, Sarah Fink, and Sarah Silvernail from the 3D Science Café will help you map out your journey. We will engage workshop participants in an inquiry lesson showcasing the instructional strategies found to be effective in our own classrooms.

Graphic organizers and templates developed by the café educators will help you build your own phenomenon-based 3-dimensional lessons to use immediately with your students. This workshop series is offered over multiple sessions to allow for peer collaboration and support, giving you the confidence to continue designing NGSS-compatible lessons.
