This inquiry and exploration-based curriculum was developed in partnership with teachers in the Woodburn School District and Pacific University. Participants will explore the S.INQ: Science Inquiry in Afterschool units that guide students through STEM concepts using science inquiry. Every lesson includes time for brainstorming and reflection, and allows ample opportunity for hands-on exploration. Units include: Sound, Wind, Engineer and Design It, Mechanical Engineering, Invisible Forces, and a Design-your-Own-Project STEM Festival. Attendees will practice hands-on lessons using the Science Inquiry process and will develop strategies for implementing successful science lessons in the afterschool setting with young elementary students.
The training will take part over two days, from 9am-12pm on September 5th and 6th.
