Two New High-Quality Units Posted
In the MySci Saving the Sand Dunes unit, students investigate the changing Sleeping Bear Sand Dunes. They examine why these sand dunes are important, how wind and water change the dunes, and why this is a problem. Students then design and test solutions that can protect the dunes. The Grade 2 unit was awarded the NGSS Design Badge by NextGenScience’s cadre of expert reviewers. See the free unit and the corresponding EQuIP Rubric for Science evaluation report here. The OpenSciEd C.3 Molecular Processes in Earth Systems unit focuses on what substances we would need to find, make, and recycle in order to successfully live and work beyond Earth, or in space. The high school unit was awarded the NGSS Design Badge by NextGenScience’s Peer Review Panel. See the free unit and the corresponding EQuIP Rubric for Science evaluation report here.
