Abstract for the conference program
This workshop will model strategies for planning and implementing effective centers in math and science classrooms. Teachers will be engaged as learners and then transition to their role as teachers to plan for integrated lessons.
First, teachers will engage in four centers that model reading, math, science, technology, and art with one topic. One set will focus on science and math standards for powers of ten in fifth grade. The other set will include science and math in third grade. The teachers will engage as learners to identify the qualities of effective instruction as identified by Hattie and Marzano.
The second portion of this workshop aims to help teachers identify specific strategies to develop a set of interdisciplinary activities that can be applied to different scenarios. Teachers can begin to plan for interdisciplinary deliver standards based content through interactive centers that deliver both STEM and STEAM education in one class.
