Rediscover the magic of curiosity and wonder for yourself while also learning teaching practices to engage students of all ages in exploration, discovery, journaling (science drawings), and discussion. Utilizing tools from the Lawrence Hall of Science’s BEETLES Project, engage with phenomenon directly, think like a scientist, experience instruction based on how people learn, participate in culturally relevant learning environments, and learn through discussion. Through outdoor explorations you will participate in making observations, field journaling, questioning strategies, teaching and learning, and promoting discussion professional learning modules. Leave with practical skills and routines you can use with students in various settings in addition to outdoor contexts to address the 2020 Colorado Science Standards and NGSS. Class will take place in the classroom, outside on campus, and at nearby parks and open spaces; participants will need to drive themselves to off campus sites (all within 5-mile radius of campus). All course work due by July 16, 2021. Registration: Teacher Institute | Western Colorado University
