Cultivating a Science Culture – Extending Science Education through School-wide Science Events
Thursday November 7, 2024 8:30am - 9:20am EST
Salem 1C
This session will present the journey of a Title 1 school in extending students’ exposure to science despite limited budget and resources. Connecting students with scientists from local industries, science organizations, and state agencies ignites curiosity and inspires the next generation of young scientists through engaging presentations and hands-on activities. Aligning presenter topics closely with the NC SCOS for science integrates content knowledge with real-world applications of scientific concepts and practices.

The Science House Presents: Shifting to Modeling and the SEPs in Elementary School
Thursday November 7, 2024 8:30am - 9:20am EST
Winston 1C
So you are already doing great science/ STEM teaching in your elementary school class, now what? How can we shift to incorporating more Science and Engineering Practices? Join us for a guided self-reflection time where we work on shifting lessons toward SEP implementation. Participants will experience a traditional lesson and then work through a guided reflection process that demonstrates how to identify areas that can be enhanced to become more student-centered and minds-on.

Citizen Science in the Elementary Classroom: Going Beyond Data Collection
Thursday November 7, 2024 9:30am - 10:20am EST
Salem 3C
Participants will access a suite of resources from “Teacher Learning for Effective School-Based Citizen Science” (TL4CS; https://horizon-research.com/tl4cs/) and engage in select lessons from this yearlong progression of support materials for a citizen science project. These materials align with 5th grade NC science standards, and have already been implemented by more than 50 teachers statewide. Participants will explore how collecting, analyzing, and interpreting authentic data can lead to deepened student content knowledge.

Integrating STEM Through Socioscientific Storylines
Thursday November 7, 2024 9:30am - 10:20am EST
Twin City Boardroom
Socioscientific lessons explore real-world issues bridging social and scientific topics. Through socioscientific storylines, students engage in hands-on learning about culturally relevant topics in their community. We will focus on integrating science and social studies in a real-world context for students incorporating the new North Carolina science standards. This session focuses on asking questions and defining problems to encourage interaction with science and engineering practices and to foster student participation in productive argumentation from evidence.
