Materials Management
If you’ve ever seen an EiE materials kit, you know that our units are materials heavy! Hands-on, problem-based activities require a lot of advanced preparation, but the results are well worth the effort. And of course, our PD team is here to walk you through every step! In this session, you’ll get a tour of our online store, learn about creating models and preparing testing stations for your class, and get tons of tips about materials management. Join us on January 10, 2018 at 4 PM EST!
Integrating ELA & Engineering in the Elementary Classroom
In this one-hour webinar, you’ll explore how students engaging in Engineering is Elementary units find practical and meaningful connections to the real world as you watch real classroom discussions and examine student work samples that show evidence of kids meeting writing standards. Through these examples of student work, you’ll be able to see how integration of engineering and ELA enriches students’ knowledge of and engagement with both subjects. Join us on January 24, 2018 at 4 PM EST!
