The five sessions of the Earth and Space Sciences Series cover earth and space sciences standards, including topics such as earth-shaping processes and earth systems, for grades pre-K-12. Participants will receive a collection of lesson plans and activities that are aligned with OACS and based on a constructivist approach and interdisciplinary model. There will be time to collaborate with other educators to share ideas and create new lessons based on the expert content presented.

Each session offers a complete package of content and teaching resources; you do not have to attend all five sessions.

To earn graduate credit: Earn one nondegree graduate credit hour by attending all five sessions OR by combining any of this series’ sessions with any of the Four Walls, Forget It! series’ sessions.
