Join WestEd’s K-12 Alliance and the California Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) Collaborative for the CA NGSS Statewide Implementation Professional Learning.
This online learning experience is designed for K-12 academic coaches, administrators, curriculum leads, and teacher leaders to deepen their understanding and implementation of teaching practices to advance student science understanding through disciplinary literacy. The learning sessions are divided into four science and literacy-specific strands: reading, notebooking, discourse, and argumentation.
Participants register for one strand per event where they will experience grade-band specific instructional strategies, engage in collaborative reflection, develop a classroom plan of action to implement with students, where student work will be generated and then collaboratively reviewed during subsequent online follow-up meetings.
