'Compliment and Connect' |
|
---|---|
Come see how AITC compliments and connects to Common Core and Next Generation Science Standards. Our focus will be on the NGSS Performance Expectations for Earth's Systems for grades K-Middle School. We will emphasize the Disciplinary Core Ideas for natural resources by sharing books, hands on activities and ways to capture your students in the learning process. You will be an active participant in the session and leave with resources to help you correlate AITC activities with the new national standards. Workshop Session (all workshops will be one hour) | |
