Facilitating Elementary Achievement Through Science (FEATS) 2009

Dr. Michael Klentschy, former superintendent of El Centro School District in California, award-winning author and international science consultant returned to Colorado for the 2009 Facilitating Elementary Achievement Through Science (FEATS) Summer Institute to support classroom teachers in the introduction and implementation of science notebooks in their classrooms.

Approximately 185  teachers, supporting principals, science and literacy coaches, and staff developers were introduced to the components of science notebooks along with outstanding student achievement data from Dr. Klentschy's former district where student achievement gains were evident in every grade level, each year after implementing science notebook concepts districtwide. Participants also enjoyed hands-on science workshops to implement in their own classrooms for increasing student learning, engagement, and inquiry.
