Carbon TIME

Carbon: Transformations in Matter and Energy (Carbon TIME) is a science education program that includes publicly available teaching units, assessments, teacher professional development, and teacher networks based in local education agencies. Since 2015, 145 teachers and over 25,000 students from across the U.S. have participated in Carbon TIME. Evidence demonstrates that participating students achieve challenging three-dimensional learning goals consistent with NGSS.

SOLID Start

The SOLID Start project provides a unique opportunity for K-2 teachers to develop their professional skills by integrating science and literacy. Through the use of unit and daily driving questions, multi-modal investigations, read alouds, writing activities, and synthesis discussions designed specifically for young children, teachers can engage students with exciting units of study that build both oral language skills as well as an understanding of scientific phenomena. Teacher Tips provided throughout the curriculum offer support to ensure successful implementation.
