Educator Workshop: Seasonal Cycles

Help develop new learning tools that promote youth engagement in science and explore the Youth Equity + STEM framework. Team up with scientists and educators from Carnegie Museum of Natural History to test innovative resources that will help your students recognize and analyze patterns and cycles in nature. We’ll learn about efforts of museum scientists and other professionals to use observational data (like the timing of flowering and leaf out in wildflowers) to provide insights on the effects of climate change. This workshop will introduce physical tools that can be borrowed from the museum for classroom use and will explore inventive ways for learners to demonstrate their developing expertise.

This workshop welcomes educators from all subject areas and grade levels.

If more than 50% of your students qualify for free or reduced-price school lunch, your school or organization will be eligible for a scholarship towards a museum field trip after the workshop.

Funding is available to reimburse your school or district for substitute teacher costs on the day that you attend this workshop.
