NGSS Climate Change Program - Aquarium of the Pacific

This program took place in Fall 2018 at Aquarium of the Pacific in Long Beach. Ms. Emily Yam was our guest educational speaker on the hydrosphere lesson. Her talk and my teaching resources can be found at Bit.ly/LeGoogle. Special Thanks to Aquarium of the Pacific and Emily for supporting this program! Thanks to the incredible teachers for such a fun experience together! Below are testimonials from teacher participants.

"EVERYTHING was so effective in helping me design curriculum! I love being able to teach students about something that they will care about. I loved the first part of the workshop, where we learned about coral reefs and watched those moving videos (totally going to use them this year!)"  Lawndale ESD Middle School Science Teacher

"The information on Earth Systems. Both lessons helped me under how to develop and design curriculum for my middle school students. It provided me with ideas on making units/lessons aligned with the NGSS; the information also provided me with ideas on creating lessons/activities that would be interesting to my students." TREE Academy Science Teacher

"The presentation of current data (different sets of data related to environmental issues) and what the country or specifically what LA is doing to help resolve environmental issues helped me learn more about global climate change." Los Angeles USD Science Teacher

"I loved Emily's presentation on the data of the climate change and the examples of natural phenomenon that Kelley went through." Walnut Valley USD Science Teacher
