Leaders: Juliette Guarino-Berg, Kate Macauley, Greg Benedis-Grab and Osele Clifford

This workshop will focus on ways to help children in the elementary grades (K-5) learn to ask and answer questions, make predictions, gather evidence, find patterns, and communicate their ideas. Through a series of hands-on activities and discussions, participants will explore how to use inquiry-driven, collaborative, and phenomena-based investigations with elementary students, and practice how to set up and run an engineering design challenge.

Now in its third year, this summer Seeing Science Everywhere will focus on engineering a water filtration system with your students. In “student mode,” we will look at ways to encourage children to use scientific tools and attitudes to make connections as they explore the world around them. In “teacher mode,” participants will reflect on their own experiences with elementary science and consider how to best prepare our next generation of scientists and engineers.

By the end of the workshop, participants will deepen their understanding of instructional strategies that support the learning of scientific skills while integrating mathematics, technology, design thinking, literacy, and social studies.

Seeing Science Everywhere + Culturally Responsive Teaching is offered as part of the STEMteachersNYC Summer STEM Institute 2021.

Please note: We take photographs and record our workshops in order to publicize a positive image of science teaching, and of STEMteachersNYC - a recognized 501(c)(3) non-profit organization. If you register, you are agreeing to be photographed and to have your voice and image video-recorded. You are also agreeing to relinquish all your rights to the photographs and video recordings.

If you do not wish to be photographed or video-recorded - you must inform us at check-in. We will take one photograph of your face so that we can erase your image if we happen to catch it by chance during the workshop, and we will do our best to avoid you. We would also appreciate your cooperation in positioning yourself at the edge of the group so as to help us avoid you.
