Positive Impacts on Student Learning
The implementation of a core curriculum affects many people. Administrators, educators, staff, and parents can all impact a school district's direction with curriculum in core subjects.
Sometimes this process can drown out input from the smallest voices… the students. What strategies can you implement to ensure their learning meets all standards while also being memorable and engaging their curiosity?
(Hint: We decided to ask the students ourselves, so check out their answers in this month’s blog article below!)
Take a closer look at FOSS, with all the key student and teacher components needed to engage students in active science learning. Give your students a learning experience they'll never forget!
