NGSS Curriculum Pilot

NGSS Curriculum Pilot
Posted on 11/21/2019
ngssNext Generation Science Standards (NGSS) curriculum was recently released statewide. A team from CJUSD evaluated the available resources and chose to pilot materials from Carolina-Smithsonian and Pearson at the elementary and middle school level with nine teachers participating in the pilot.

Each participating teacher will pilot the materials from both publishers. During the fall semester, we are discovering that both curriculum are very hands-on and require students to work collaboratively on both small and large experiments. The first round of the pilot concludes in December with the second round beginning when students and staff return from winter break in January. Staff and students will evaluate both programs with the goal of selecting materials to adopt for the 2020-2021 school year.
