Using the Natural History of the Northeast as Phenomena in the World of NGSS<\/div>\n
This PLC will focus on the natural history of the Northeast and how to use that natural history to provide rich context for the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) related phenomena and problem solving in the STEAM world. Topics include biodiversity, geology, invasive species, Earth and human impacts, air and water quality, and more! Participants will design and implement a lesson using local phenomena.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
