NGSS Storylines For Online Distance Learning

We can all agree this emergency remote learning situation isn’t ideal. It’s not ideal in a typical science classroom, and it certainly is making three dimensional, NGSS-aligned instruction particularly challenging. Phenomena, Science and Engineering Practices, discovery and meaning-making, all of these things can be particularly difficult to implement in online settings. But it IS NOT impossible.

You CAN do it.

In the video training below, I’m going to share how you can continue creating simple storylines built on phenomena to engage your students in NGSS-style learning even in these unexpected circumstances.
