NGSS 5E High School Biology Collaborative Planning Internal Workshop
February 26 | 8am - 4pm
2ND OFFERING NGSS curriculum resources are often challenging to navigate and develop into an appropriate scope and sequence for classrooms. Let SJCOE STEM Programs facilitate this process in a collaborative workshop with other area educators. We will explore NGSS resources and work alongside other grade-like educators to further develop 5E lessons,
storylines and units that can be immediately implemented into practice. |

Make and Take Electrophoresis
April 30 | 4:30pm - 8:30pm
GRADES 6-8 Come and experience how electrophoresis can be used to address CA NGSS Performance Expectations and make a class set of equipment that will allow you to continue this activity in your classroom for years to come! This make and take workshop will begin with participants experiencing how the lesson can unfold based upon viewing an engaging phenomenon. Once observed, participants will model what they think is happening. Over time, they will pan and execute an experiment, develop a scientific explanation that includes claim, evidence and reasoning. Kit assembly will serve a class of 35 working in pairs.
