Family and home-based activities are opportunities for educators to re-think science learning in ways that put partnerships with families at the center. Frameworks and lessons from @LearnInPlaces project can support this. Read more: stemteachingtools.org/brief/… #ngsschat #PBL #STEM

NGSS-aligned Science should be situated in students' lived experience & include extensive collaborative learning opportunities! @LearnInPlaces and @OpenSciEd have developed amazing OER science materials that center students & build SEL. @MiMathScience supports both these projects
