Chemistry for the Next Generation (In-person Workshop) - Patterns Chemistry is the second course in the 3-year high school Patterns Science sequence. This workshop focuses on three-dimensional (3D) learning through culturally responsive, phenomena-based storylines that intertwine the disciplinary core ideas of chemistry with the scientific and engineering practices and crosscutting concepts as described in the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS). Participants will experience the Patterns Approach of using inquiry and exploration to teach content to students as well as how to integrate classroom discourse into their instructional design including a variety of data discussion methods. Participants will also learn how to include instructional practices that support student scientific writing that advance equitable engagement of students as they grapple with real-world applications in Chemistry. These applications involve social and environmental justice themes and mathematical patterns and trends. Units 1-2 will be covered in this workshop. Facilitators: Kristi Miller & Jomae Sica
