Next Generation Science Standards Correlation Guides - California Education and the Environment Initiative (EEI)

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.description
The California EEI Curriculum is a natural fit for supporting the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS). In the summer of 2013, we created a focus group of K-12 teachers and administrators who advised us on the content and format of our correlation guides. We are now posting drafts of the correlation guides upon their completion.
