Did you know that the seaweed you've seen in the ocean or even eaten as a snack is inspiring innovators to imagine new materials? Large brown algae, like kelp, contains polymers-long chains of molecules-that are more environmentally friendly than the ones in most plastics. These natural polymers (alginates) could eventually be used to create sustainable everyday objects. Try your hand at using a bit of chemistry to turn biodegradable polymers from algae into your own custom... Read more

A small stream called Rio Guayabo runs past the feeders in the background, and the lush landscaping of the Canopy Lodge grounds grade into the forested slopes around them. The feeding table is around 40 feet from the main lodge, and is one of several feeders provisioned throughout the day so that guests to the lodge are greeted to spectacular views of many of the common birds found in this ecosystem Feeders will be filled about every 2 hours between 7 AM and 5PM.

Curriculum resources for each grade have been developed to highlight the key areas in the revised Elementary Science and Technology Curriculum 2022. These learning experiences have been designed to provide educators with content-specific lessons and activities that cover approximately 1-3 class periods. All activities include curriculum expectations, learning goals, success criteria, teaching and learning activities, resources and materials, assessment opportunities, and important equity, diversity, and inclusivity considerations to support all learners. Each of the earning experiences is tied to one of the two models in the long range plans found on this website.

In these activities, there is a strong focus on Strand A as the overarching strand that focuses on the foundational STEM skills and connections that will enable students to investigate concepts and integrate knowledge from each of the other strands and make practical connections between science and technology and other subject areas. In Strands B through E, students integrate Strand A expectations as they develop their understanding of strand-specific concepts, investigate phenomena, and make meaningful connections to the real world.

NSTA Instructional Materials allow students-as-scientists to have authentic, relevant opportunities to actively make sense of the world and beyond.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Instructional Materials are sensemaking tasks teachers and parents can use to engage their students in authentic, relevant science learning.

Students actively try to figure out how the world works (science) or how to design solutions to problems (engineering) using the science and engineering practices. Engaging in these practices requires that students be part of a learning community, of classmates or family, to be able to share and evaluate ideas, give and receive critique, and reach consensus.

Daily Do
A standalone lesson that is driven by students' questions about a phenomenon or problem and can be completed in 1-3 50-minute class periods.

Daily Do Playlist
A group of two to four Daily Dos (lesson plans) that were not designed as a coherent learning sequence but address related Disciplinary Core Ideas.

Playlist
A coherent learning sequence of 2-4 lessons (up to eight 50-minute classroom periods). NSTA is currently using a storyline approach to develop playlists.

Unit
A coherent learning sequence of 6-10 lessons (up to 16 50-minute class periods) with a culminating task. NSTA is currently using a storyline approach to develop units.
