Abstract for the conference program
Principals, do you want to see your academic achievement soar in science? Teachers, do you want your enthusiasm for science to be reinforced in every class? During our interactive workshop, school leaders will be empowered to support all teachers in cross-curricular strategies that increase student achievement. Teachers will be armed with strategies to design, implement and assess teaching approaches that impact student learners. Participants will also be provided with strategies for integrating science on a school-wide level by collaborating with all subject areas teachers including Mathematics, Language Arts, Social Studies, Art, Music, Health, Physical Education and more. The strategies provided will allow educators to make links between different school curriculum areas to support learning in each subject-a win-win for all teachers and students! Any K-12 educator or school leader ready to further increase student achievement by leveraging the skills students acquire in the science classroom are welcomed to attend.
