These performance tasks offer authentic\, hands-on scientific and engineering experiences that allow students to demonstrate their understanding of chemistry concepts and scientific practices in a real-world context. Chemistry teachers and science administrators will deepen their understanding of the NYSSLS and the expectations for three-dimensional student learning. Participants will learn how these investigations are designed to prepare students for the type of scientific reasoning and application they will encounter on the Physical Setting: Chemistry Regents examination. Workshop highlights include: -A demonstration of how each investigation aligns with NYSSLS performance expectations and dimensions of learning -Discussion on how the investigations function as assessments of student learning -Hands-on experience with the Chemistry Investigations to model classroom implementation -Collaboration time to develop strategies for successful integration into existing curricula *Please Note: Participants must bring paper copies of each Chemistry Investigation’s documents. These will not be provided at the workshop. Participants should plan to attend both days to have the opportunity to explore all three investigations. Participants should bring a fully charged laptop\, iPad\, or tablet to download resources and access digital tools during the session. Eligible for 12 hours CTLE credit. Can use 2 consortium seats. If district pays\, district approved must be confirmed prior to start of session.\nFlyer: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1T-DI9-Zsokdci5fg8JiphJJl52xUqYis/view?usp=sharing\nRegistration: https://www.mylearningplan.com/WebReg/ActivityProfile.asp?D=13208&I=5417189 URL:/event/exploring-the-nyssls-chemistry-investigations-2-day-workshop-in-person-facilitated-by-kathi-dinota-830-230pm/ LOCATION:JEA Alternative School\, 31 Lee Ave\, Wheatley Heights\, NY\, 11798-1837\, United States CATEGORIES:Instructional Support Services Full Calendar END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20261008T083000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20261008T143000 DTSTAMP:20260617T022726 CREATED:20260612T221209Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260612T221209Z UID:26377-1791448200-1791469800@www.wsboces.org SUMMARY:Building NGSS-Aligned Science Units Using Paul Andersen's 10-Step Storyline Process *IN PERSON* facilitated by Richard Slesinski - 8:30-2:30pm DESCRIPTION:In this hands-on\, collaborative workshop\, participants will be guided through Paul Andersen’s 10-step storyline process for designing three-dimensional\, NGSS-aligned units in high school physics. Each step will be introduced and modeled using a completed storyline unit on kinematics\, created by the facilitator. Participants will then apply each step to begin developing their own storyline unit in a different content area in their subjects. This “learn by doing” format ensures that by the end of the session\, teachers will leave with a solid framework for a standards-based\, phenomena-driven unit they can continue developing and use in their own classrooms. Learning Targets: 1. Analyze a fully developed kinematics unit aligned to NGSS using the 10-step storyline design 2. Work through each of the 10 steps for a unit of their choosing\, with support and peer feedback 3. Explore high-quality resources for phenomena\, assessments\, and learning performances 4. Build confidence in implementing three-dimensional teaching and learning. Eligible for 6 hours CTLE credit.

This interactive workshop explores the powerful connection between language\, cognition\, and learning-and how these elements influence student identity\, access\, and achievement. Educators examine how language develops\, how meaning is constructed\, and how both verbal and non-verbal communication shape understanding in the classroom. A strong emphasis is placed on cultural and linguistic diversity as an instructional strength\, including multilingualism\, dialects\, code-switching\, identity\, and equity in schools. Participants analyze real classroom scenarios and explore strategies for creating more responsive\, inclusive learning environments. Educators leave with practical strategies to support language development while honoring student voice\, identity\, and cultural background. Eligible for 6 hours CTLE credit. Can use 1 consortium seat.
