Anyone Want to Have FREE Access to the NSTA Learning Center?


Good Morning STEM Leaders,

Please see email below.  Need to have names ASAP of anyone interested.  This is a wonderful FREE science resource that will help you with our new science standards. Get the word out to all science teachers in your building. To Join the group add your name to the list.
__________________________________________
The Math and Science Centers Network has some NSTA Learning Center accounts available. These accounts will be good from June 1 through next school year. 

We are asking that you have a plan to use the Learning Center as part of PD (rather than just handing the accounts over haphazardly). To get those started we need a list of the teachers names and email addresses. Ideally, this would be before Monday(might be able to be a little flexible!)  Please send the list to me as soon as you can. If it's going to be after Monday, please let me know it's coming. 
___________________________________________

I was thinking of the same format we had the last time we did this.  Please ask and forward this to teachers in your building that might be interested.  I want to open it up to all science teachers this time.  If you participated the last time, you can still participate this time.

Meeting Dates for 2017-1018 Learning Center
All meeting will be held at RESA

Email Laura Chambless (chambless.laura@sccresa.org) with any questions.

To Join the group add your name to the list.
