Providing an in-depth, collaborative, and project-based learning experience to spark student interest in your middle level science classroom.
A powerful approach to fostering inquiry in the classroom and encouraging students to take ownership of their learning is by engaging them with module-level phenomena and lesson-level science probes. This process allows students to identify and challenge their preconceptions, laying the groundwork for breaking down complex concepts into smaller, actionable investigations. Through lesson-level activities such as Claim, Evidence, and Reasoning (CER), students participate in meaningful exploration. The overarching goal is to make science engaging and relevant by integrating real-world connections, including lesson-level explorations of STEM careers, the nature of science, and other practical, application-based opportunities.
