Trundle, Kathy Cabe; Hagevik, Rita; Wheeler, Laura; Vela, Katherine N.; Parslow, Michelle; Joy, David N. – Science Activities: Projects and Curriculum Ideas in STEM Classrooms, 2023
Social connections are crucial for today's middle and high school students. We address this social need through a 3-H Social and Emotional Learning (SEL) Cycle. Through the Three Sisters Garden activity presented here, we teach secondary school students about biodiversity and sustainability as we integrate the arts into STEM (STEAM). Students…

Barth, Amy E.; Thomas, Cathy Newman – Intervention in School and Clinic, 2022
Middle grade students with disabilities that impact reading, including learning disabilities (LD) in reading, high functioning autism (ASD), and emotional and behavioral disorders (EBD), and students atrisk for reading failure due to the effects of poverty often struggle to make knowledge-based inferences while reading informational texts. As a…

Lee, Okhee – Science and Children, 2020
A "Framework for K-12 Science Education and the Next Generation Science Standards" ("NGSS") are intended for all students, hence "all standards, all students" (NGSS Lead States 2013). To make this vision a reality, the "NGSS" highlight three key instructional shifts: (1) explain phenomena or design solutions…

Curran, Mary Carla; Ramsey, Andrée L.; Bower, Amy S. – Science Activities: Projects and Curriculum Ideas in STEM Classrooms, 2021
Oceans play an important role in weather and climate through transfers of heat and moisture to the atmosphere, and by moving heat and climate-relevant molecules like carbon dioxide around the globe. Energy also transfers from the atmosphere to the surface of the ocean, traveling down through the water column creating ocean currents that transport…

Dingman, Shannon W.; Teuscher, Dawn; Kasmer, Lisa A.; Olson, Travis A. – North American Chapter of the International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, 2019
Mathematics teachers are vital components in determining what mathematics students have the opportunity to learn. There are a vast number of factors and reasons that influence a teacher's instructional decisions. As such, teachers rely heavily on their curricular reasoning (CR) to make decisions about what content to teach, how that content is…

Hodges, Tracey S.; Kerch, Cailin; Fowler, Melisa – Middle Grades Review, 2020
As COVID-19 has suddenly transformed the landscape of learning in the United States, teachers are doing what they do best: figuring out how to effectively respond to support their students on their own. However, by creating digital networks that include university-school-family partnerships, the reach of teachers and teacher educators can…

Reiser, Brian J.; Novak, Michael; McGill, Tara A. W.; Penuel, William R. – Journal of Science Teacher Education, 2021
The vision of the Framework and NGSS requires important shifts in teaching approaches and instructional materials. We argue that this commitment to engaging learners in meaningful practice and supporting students' epistemic agency entails that we support "coherence from the students' perspective." This coherence arises when students see…
