In this second part of the STEM Curriculum series, focused on the elementary classroom, we will explore the impact of the new Wisconsin State Science Standards on student learning.  Participants will learn how to implement the instructional shifts within the standards and develop an integrated lesson using the 3 dimensions of science learning.

Learning Outcomes will be:

  • Understand how the 3 dimensions of the WSS work together to create a holistic approach to science as a discipline.
  • Understand what a WSS/NGSS-based lesson looks like.
  • Understand how the WSS/NGSS shifts look in practice.
