Asynchronous Videos

Density Video analysis for Elementary school

  

Watch the density video and complete the questions as if you were an elementary student. Use only the information and examples provided in the video. Avoid answering from your own background knowledge as an educator.

Density Video Analysis for Middle School and High school

    

Watch the density video and complete Part 1 as if you were a middle or high school student encountering the content during a science lesson.

Although you may already understand density, respond using only the explanations, vocabulary, and examples presented in the video.

STEM & Project-Based Learning (PBL)

Watch the STEM & Project-Based Learning (PBL) video, designed for educators across all grade levels. After viewing, complete the short survey by rating your confidence for each statement using the provided scale.

Grab interest

Watch Bring Science to Life! NGSS Tips & Hands-On Lessons to explore practical NGSS strategies and hands-on science instruction. After viewing, complete the confidence survey below.


Asynchronous Journal/Survey Activities

Complete the asynchronous journal and confidence survey after each professional development video to reflect on your learning and connect new strategies to your classroom practice. Email completed work to admin@makechempossible.com
