MSTA Conference

Here it is, the weekend that many science teachers across the state anticipate every year. I am at the MSTA Conference in Grand Rapids. I spent all day yesterday sitting in sessions to gain ideas to use with my students. One of the sessions presented had to do with the state's content expectations. Oakland county has assembled Teacher Resource Manuals for the high school science content expectations. During the session, the presenter covered those found within the core of biology but shared the site where the others can be found. I looked through that site this morning and found some good resources. The standards have been broken down and activities have been included to use in your classroom. I haven't had a ton of time to look through it all yet, but what I did see appears to be helpful. If anyone is interested in checking these out, they can be found at: http://www.oakland.k12.mi.us/science/resources.aspx
