Description

Calling all 3rd through 8th grade teachers! Join us for a dynamic one-day event hosted by NCESD staff, where you’ll discover the perfect blend of computational thinking, computer science, and climate science for your 3rd through 8th-grade classrooms. Unleash your creativity as we explore practical strategies to seamlessly integrate the micro:bit and Climate Action Kit into your science lessons. Dive into hands-on activities that will captivate your students and deepen their understanding of these important subjects. Throughout the day, we’ll highlight the power of computational thinking in teaching, connecting the Washington State Science Standards (NGSS) with the Washington State K-12 Computer Science Learning Standards and Educational Technology Standards. As a bonus, each participant will receive their very own Micro:Bit and Climate Action Kit (Land & Energy) for future exploration and use in the classroom. Don’t miss this chance to enrich your teaching approach and inspire your students with engaging, hands-on learning experiences!
