The Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) were created to empower students to utilize "real world applications of science" in the classroom. These collections have been methodically curated to support a K-5 curriculum and align with each substandard.
Collections utilize vocabulary, visuals, and high interest topics, acting as building blocks for students as they progress through each grade.
NGSS follows a three-dimensional approach to learning:
- Disciplinary Core Ideas (DCI's)
- Crosscutting Concepts
- Scientific and Engineering Practices
