Join our Professional Learning and Curriculum Specialists to earn continuing education credits and dive into getting started with the FOSS Science Curriculum! In this community of practice, you will learn how to get started with FOSS, practice tips and tricks, learn how to navigate your resources, and get your classroom up and running.
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 every two months – 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 18th– 2 hours focusing on active investigation and notebook foundations
· October 9th– 1.5 hours focusing on making sense of data and language development
· October 30th – 1.5 hours focusing on assessment and next-step strategies
· November 20th– 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!
