Punxsutawney Phil may have predicted six more weeks of winter, but that doesn't mean we can't start planning for spring! In preparation, let's sow some seeds of science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) education! Nourish the Future (NTF) a national initiative developed by science teachers for science teachers has some upcoming workshops for educators. At NTF workshops, teacher leaders guide participants through inquiry-based, hands-on STEM lessons aligned with Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) for chemistry, biology and environmental science classes.
