Ready to bring computer science into your classroom—without changing your core curriculum?! Our new computer science integrated units make it simple. Each unit is designed to replace existing #OpenSciEd units in grade-level course sequences without requiring additional instructional time or altering the course scope and sequence. 🤩 Get started today → 🔗 bit.ly/OSEComputerSci…. #OpenSciEd #CSforAll #STEMEducation #NGSS #CSTA

Attending the @RowanSchools Mini Conference today! Just wrapped up a fantastic session on @OpenSciEd, led by @BrandyCarver and Keri Johnson. This approach uses storylines to spark curiosity and drive learning through real-world phenomena and student questions. 🔬🌍 #rcLEAD #OpenSciEd

🚨 Big News 🚨 All three of our #OpenSciEd High School courses received ALL-GREEN ratings from @EdReports for quality, coherence, and usability! 💫📚 This achievement reflects years of dedication, collaboration, and innovation from an inspiring network of educators, researchers, curriculum developers, partner states, and philanthropic supporters. Huge thanks to our incredible partners: @BSCSorg, @NorthwesternU, @utdanacenter, @inquiry_hub, and the many teachers, students, and leaders whose insights shaped every unit! 💻 Read the full review here: bit.ly/OSEHighSchoolE…! #LearnwithOpenSciEd #EdReports #Highschoolscience

Behind every powerful learning moment is a teacher who made it happen. This week, we’re honoring those educators. #TeacherAppreciationWeek #OpenSciEd #ThankATeacher

Their passion for student learning and commitment to creating meaningful science experiences inspire us all. #ThankATeacher #OpenSciEd #TeacherAppreciationWeek

#OpenSciEd teachers are creating real change — one student, one question, one lesson at a time.❤️ #TeacherAppreciation #ScienceEducation #ThankATeacher

Behind every great classroom moment is a teacher who made it possible. This week, we’re highlighting the educators who bring #OpenSciEd to life.❤️ #TeacherAppreciationWeek #ScienceEducation #ThankaTeacher

At #OpenSciEd, we are incredibly grateful for the passionate, dedicated teachers who bring science to life in their classrooms!💫 Every day, you do far more than teach lessons — you ignite curiosity, spark wonder, and cultivate confidence in the next generation of scientists. Your work is at the heart of everything we do at #OpenSciEd. Because of you, more students than ever see themselves as scientists, engineers, and problem-solvers. From all of us: THANK YOU for your unwavering commitment to your students and all you do to build a more curious, informed, and hopeful future! ❤️🚀 #TeacherAppreciationWeek #ThankATeacher #OpenSciEd #ScienceEducation #WeLoveTeachers

@kiddomapp is spreading the LOVE of Science, sharing @OpenSciEd at #Philly25 @NSTA

Learning about- How to customize curriculum to increase relevance for students. With @ReneeAffolter from @OpenSciEd.

My focus today at @NSTA was elementary science. I got to take a deep look at the pre-released @OpenSciEd curriculum, which has the potential to align our K-5 and 6-12 science programs, resulting in one cohesive K-12 curriculum.

Next up: "OpenSciEd Elementary Classroom Discussions: Supporting students to share and discuss their ideas with the classroom community" (#PennsylvaniaConventionCenter, Room 202 A). Engage in an #OpenSciEdES! #LearnwithOpenSciEd #NSTASpring25

What is phenomena-based sensemaking? ✅ Providing real-world events that motivate learning. ✅ Students' questions about those events drive learning. ✅ Materials provide structure and support to help students figure out the phenomenon. To learn more about how phenomena-based learning is incorporated in the @OpenSciEd instructional model, click here ➡️ tinyurl.com/yckcfx25! #NSTAPhilly25 @NSTA #NSTA2025 #NSTASpring25 #LearnwithOpenSciEd

"Students are willing to answer questions because they know they don't need to have the right answer. They know we'll figure it out together!" Phenomena-based learning helps us meet our vision for science education because it, ✅ Values student knowledge and experience. ✅ Positions students to make sense of the world around them. ✅ Deep 3-D learning doesn't slip away after a test.

There's a lot of exciting discussion in "I can't wait for science class" as teachers discuss the "why" behind their investment and interest in 3D phenomena-based learning! 🤩 #NSTAPhilly25 @NSTA #NSTA2025 #LearnwithOpenSciEd

Science Regional Teacher Partners and @KimWatters5 learning more about leading KY with OpenSciEd.org elementary. Great day with @BSCSorg @pattiworks1 @StephHarmon41
