After nearly 15 years, North Carolina’s middle school science standards have undergone a big shift. What does this mean for you and your students? In this session, we’ll break down the key changes, including new Science and Engineering Practices (SEPs), how expectations for teaching and learning have evolved, and what’s been added or removed from the standards. You'll leave with a clear roadmap for integrating these changes into your classroom, plus practical strategies for real-world application. Whether you're adapting your lessons or just trying to navigate the transition, we've got your back!
