About The 'NGSS' Science Standards and Ms. Papini
As an elementary school science specialist for five years I have participated in the process of adopting these standards: attending multiple CC County of Education and district trainings on teaching these standards. Not only was I able to help officially test various curriculum 'vendors' such as Carolina Science and StemScopes, and Amplify, I have also been leading and helping classroom teachers develop investigations and lesson plans in support of the standards.

Here is a link that goes straight to the NGSS Topics by grade.

​
What I use regularly is the official NGSS app which for my purpose is way more simple and convenient! Highly recommended.
​
I've often thought of making my own Maker Lab standards that would entail a long list of skills and design practices ranging from tying a knot and cutting circles to powering an LED or making a cardboard hinge...
