Explore the New NYSED Earth and Space Sciences Investigations **IN PERSON** Facilitated by Brian Vorwald – 8:30-2:30pm

Audience: Regents Earth Science teachers and science leaders This workshop will provide participants with an opportunity to explore the three required Earth and Space Sciences Investigations. These are new performance tasks that provide authentic, hands-on scientific and engineering experiences that allow students to demonstrate the knowledge and skills from the Learning Standards. Science teachers and administrators will deepen their knowledge of New York State Science Learning Standards (NYSSLS) with their expectations for three-dimensional student learning and how the investigations will prepare students for the 3-D scientific reasoning they will need to perform on the Earth and Spaces Sciences regents examination.
Included will be:

• Demonstration of how the investigations align with the NYSSLS;

• Suggested guidance for embedding each investigation in a NYSSLS aligned curriculum;

• How the investigations are an assessment of student learning;

• A hands-on experience with the investigations;

• An opportunity to collaborate on strategies for successful implementation.
***Participants must bring paper copies of each ESS Investigation’s documents. These cannot be provided.***
