The ESTEP 6th grade professional development will be a one week, bootcamp style, regional (think...stay close to home and use place-based phenomena in your classroom) workshop that incorporates earth and space science content as well as teach you how to think about changing your teachercraft to help your students make sense of science.  We’ll walk you through investigations that you can use as a jumping-off point in your transition to the new standards - you'll learn about phenomena, storylines and 3-dimensional strategies by DOING science!  We will also provide ongoing support as you begin your journey, and create regional cohorts so that you aren’t doing it alone.
