Designed to target a small number of TEKS, this series aims to provide an in-depth look at the student expectations, depth, rigor, content knowledge and strategies that will be needed for students to demonstrate mastery of these concepts.
These workshops are considered to be Core or foundational in nature. The intent of these workshops is to build teacher content knowledge and provide pedagogical support. New teachers, teachers new to their content area/grade level, or teachers who are teaching a SE for the first time will especially benefit from these workshops.
This workshop will focus on TEKS 8.9C which has been identified for the STAAR as a readiness standard. Earth and Space Science teachers may also benefit from this workshop as it relates to ESS 2.F and ESS 11.D.
