More Info

The cost includes ten hours of continuing education credits, a certificate of completion, and materials necessary to engage in the lessons for each session. Our community will meet roughly every two weeks – so you have time to embed what you’ve learned and then bring examples to build on for the next session.

The Community of Practice Schedule is below:

  • September 19th – 1.5 hours focusing on active investigation and notebook foundations
  • October 10th – 1.5 hours focusing on making sense of data and language development
  • October 24th – 1.5 hours focusing on assessment and next-step strategies
  • November 14th – 1.5 hours focusing synthesizing student thinking

Registration closes September 6th to allow us time to ship materials to you for participation, so act now! We hope you’ll join us to learn more about how to take science notebooks to the next level!
