Science Worksheets Don’t Grow Dendrites: 20 Instructional Strategies that Engage the Brain – K-12

Date:  Wednesday, October 14, 2015

If there were ever content that should be taught using hands-on, relevant content, it is in the area of science. This workshop is taught by one of the best science teachers in the world, Warren Phillips. Warren was named the 2004 Disney Teacher of the Year and one of the 2007 USA Today Top Teachers and has turned countless students on to science in Plymouth, Massachusetts during an illustrious teaching career. He is also the author of SingAlong Science, a three CD set of original songs designed to teach science concepts to a variety of familiar tunes. During this workshop, you will learn to teach selected content standards delineated by the National Science Teachers Association through the use of 20 brain-compatible instructional strategies. You will sing the States of Matter, hear the story of the Amber Rock to help students understand the discovery of electricity, and witness countless experiments that can be replicated in the classroom. This workshop always leaves participants wanting more!
