Join us for Sensemaking – The Power of Making Connections, at the 130th Annual STANYS conference in Syracuse designed to empower educators in navigating the exciting landscape of the New York State Science Learning Standards. This conference isn’t just about the what of the NYSSLS, but the how – how to connect the standards to engaging classroom practice, innovative pedagogy, and meaningful student learning. This conference isn’t just about isolated scientific disciplines; it’s about weaving them together all through the lens of the NYSSLS and its emphasis on crosscutting concepts. This year’s theme emphasizes the crucial role of interdisciplinary connections in scientific discovery and problem-solving, mirroring the interconnected nature of the world around us. CTLE credit is available for attendees if they complete the session attendance forms.
