October 28, 2026: Using Core Ideas to Construct Explanations of Science Phenomena
In this foundational workshop we will develop locally and culturally relevant phenomena to drive instruction and explore how students can use Core Ideas explicitly as they make sense of these phenomena.
Led by Dr. Wil van der Veen, author and nationally recognized expert on the NGSS and science education, participants will work in grade-level and content-specific groups that are facilitated by teachers from our NGSS Teacher Leader Program. Light breakfast and lunch will be provided. Participants will receive 5 PDUs.
