Thanks to all who continue to work for justice, climate action, and sustainability at all scales and across diverse contexts.

Grateful to have the opportunity to voice the need for climate learning

COLUMN: The U.S. government is pulling back from climate instruction. States, teachers and other countries are stepping up
Climate anxiety is real, and it coexists with ignorance about climate change among America’s students.

Contemplative tonight as climate and sustainability education efforts funded by federal US grants across the nation get cancelled. We all knew it was coming. What will states and philanthropy fo to fill the vacuum?

Flyer showing a girl holding a turtle outdoors, another girl recording data on a clipboard, and a teacher smiling on. STEMTeachingTools.org Free Teacher Learning Resources to Support NGSS Implementation What Are They? The National Research Council's A Framework for K-12 Science Education and the resulting Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) represent a new vision to help all students understand the natural and built world. As educators realize this new vision, many problems of practice come up. STEM Teaching Tools are co-authored by teachers and researchers to illuminate these issues and give advice about how to accomplish specific pieces of the NGSS. The resources are short. direct. easily shareable, and offer links to other useful tools. WHY THEY MATTER TO YOU Teachers need tools to reflect on how their teaching aligns with the NGSS & NRC Framework vision These teacher learning resources have been designed to be easily shared with others. District staff & PD providers can use these tools in professional development to support implementation of the new vision. Schoolleaders can use the tools to understand crucial aspects of the new vision for K-12 science education and then implement plans to support teachers' professional growth. FUNDED BY THE NATIONAL SCIENCE FOUNDATION THROUGH THE ACESSE PROJECT (COSSS.ORG/ACESSE) STEM Teaching Tools @ NSTA Philadelphia| March 26-29, 2025 All sessions held in the Pennsylvania Convention Center- 203 B Thursday, March 27 8:00-9:00 AM: Teaching about the Intersections of Biology, Race, and Racism: Strategies, Curriculum Resources, and Research 12:30-2:00 PM: How to Adapt Instructional Materials to Focus on Climate Justice (Physics) 2:20-3:20 PM: Engaging Students in Talking About Indigenous Sovereignty and Climate Systems 3:40-4:40 PM: Climate Justice Overview: Priority Areas and Approaches Friday, March 28 8:00-9:00 AM: Supporting Equity and Justice Through Science Instruction: The Road Traveled and the One Ahead 9:20-10:20 AM: Using Art Pedagogy in Science Class to Teach Climate Justice 1:00-2:30 PM: Supporting All Students in Making Sense of Phenomena By Building All of Their Intellectual Resources 2:40-3:40 PM: Engaging in Climate Science Education Through Connections to Everyday Life, Equity, and Justice 4:00-5:00 PM: Supporting Youths' Climate Emotions as Authentic Dimensions of Sensemaking Saturday, March 29 8:30-10:00 AM: Making Science Instruction Compelling for All Students: How to Integrate the Cultural Lives of Your Students into Your Teaching 10:20-11:20 AM: Core Practices that Center Justice in Ambitious Teaching 11:40 AM-1:10 PM: Get Your Students Outside to Learn Science!

I greatly admire Chris Kluwe's peaceful civil disobedience as his method of getting his points heard, they are definitely being heard.

Questions:
1. Why is someone moved to take peaceful civil disobedience?
2. How can we use our power like this in other places?
