Our Region 10 Science Consultants will help 5th grade science teachers:
-
Establish a student-centered, inquiry-based, excited-about-science laboratory culture.

Provide meaningful, hands-on labs for students using low-cost materials.

Have a cohort of science teachers as well as Region 10 consultants for networking, brainstorming, collaboration, and support.

All teachers should be 5th grade science.
Teachers will meet face-to-face six times for day-long, experiential professional development which includes conducting multiple labs each session. They are also encouraged to participate in a virtual forum once each semester.
