Since January 12, 2018 I have been running the US Embassy’s Book Bus teacher empowerment program Everyday Science: Learn, To Teach; Teach, To Learn.

I promised the participants that I would share, online, most of what I shared with them in the workshops, that I would share them in the form of blog posts. This is the second one. (Click here for the blog post Everyday Science: Learn, To Teach; Teach, To Learn in which you can find links to all the blog post about the workshops.)

  • Click here for a PDF version of the PowerPoint presentation on Science and Science Education. (I have eliminated the details of the activities they engaged in on Science Education.)
  • Click here for a PDF version of the PowerPoint presentation on curriculum design. The presentation included links to other documents, links to which are provided below.
  • Click here for a PDF version of the outline of the content and skills to be covered in the Year 5 Middle Year (Chemistry) Program (MYP).
  • Click here for a PDF version of the Year 5 Chemistry curriculum design (scope and sequence document).
  • Click here for a PDF version of an overview of IB Diploma Chemistry curriculum and sequence of topics.
  • Click here for a PDF version of curriculum design of IB Diploma Chemistry program.
  • Click here for a PDF version of an example of topic summary sheet provided to the MYP Year 5 chemistry students.

Once again, I had them provide anonymous reflections. One of the first questions in the sheet asks them to rate the session and provide a reason(s) for the rating.
